If you bought a German version of Photoshop CS6, you may want to switch back to English. In this post I will show you a trick to do this without taking use of a language pack.
The main problem is, that Adobe disallows us to switch the language in Photoshop directly, as you can see at the following screen:
Ok, here comes the trick (I am quite sure this will work on other language versions too).
- Make sure that Photoshop is closed!
- Open the Finder: /Applications/Adobe Photoshop CS6/Locales/de_DE/Support Files
- In the "Supported Files" directory you will find a file named "tw10428.dat"
- Rename "tw10428.dat" to "tw10428.bak"*
- Start Photoshop (GUI language should be English now)
- Done! :)
* To rename "tw10428.dat" > Right click on "tw10428.dat" file > Select "Get Info" > Goto the "Name & Extension" label > In the textfield you type "tw10428.bak".
After closing the current dialog don't forget to confirm the changes with "Use .bak".
