Books language setup

Hi all,

my main system language is Italian.

Nevertheless, "Books" is in German.

The store fortunately offers books in the main language (in Italian, therefore) but all the features and options are in German.

I can't find a way to change the language.

Can anyone help me?

Thank you very much

Hi Tom,

thanks for your quick reply.

But it didn't really help me.

I had to search for a while longer to find an indication of Apple.

I do not know why Books does not rely on the system setup, like all other applications.


Here the way to change is quite well hidden and in my opinion not very intuitive:

«

Change the country or region setting

  1. In the Books app  on your Mac, click Featured (below Book Store or Audiobook Store) in the sidebar.
  2. At the bottom-right corner, click the flag icon (or name), then select a country or region.
