How can I change the language in UI InDesign CS6 (Creative Cloud)? I currently have all menus in Norwegian, but would like to have them in English. I don't remember any options when installing to choose the language. Hope someone can help! Thanks a lot!

You have Creative Cloud then you can change the language of the application from AAM preferences.

Please find the link below for the article with the steps :-

BTW no need to uninstall.

This video (from ifskills.com) describes how. Basically, you should open ID (might work with others; this is the only one I checked), but NOT have a document open. Make changes to all kinds of things here, including language. Affects NEW documents. Alternatively, if all your paragraph styles are based on the base one, you could just change the language in that one and the change should flow through to all other styles. I did notice, however, there is a language called "North American English", so Adobe may be taking some latitude on creating new languages based on majority rule!

That video has absolutely nothing to do with the question of how to change the InDesign Interface language.

It changes the language of the publication. I'm guessing by your response, it didn't also change the UI interface? I agree with all subsequent posters: there are no options in the Preferences in ID to change the language.

There should have been an option, and you might be able to change if you uninstall and reinstall, but also take a look at Change InDesign’s UI Language with Free App | InDesignSecrets

I have downloaded the free app, but it has not been testen on CS6, so I'll try to reinstall first, and see if i can find this option. Thank you.
