dsc Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I'm wondering if the following is expected behaviour ("Lieferungen" means deliveries in German): The Deliveries app is localized in German and I bought the app from the German App Store, but my language is set to English. Link to comment
Andrew Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 I'm wondering if the following is expected behaviour ("Lieferungen" means deliveries in German): The Deliveries app is localized in German and I bought the app from the German App Store, but my language is set to English. Alfred is being given the display name by OS X (without knowing the language)... perhaps try setting your localisation to German, and then back to English then typing 'reload' into Alfred. Also, what is the app showing as in Finder? Cheers, Andrew Link to comment
dsc Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share Posted February 3, 2016 Spotlight also has this issue, so it doesn't appear to be related to Alfred. Switching from to German and back to English didn't fix the problem. I switched it to German briefly a while ago, this may have caused the issue as my German work machine has always been in English and does not have the issue. Link to comment
deanishe Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 You can try re-indexing the app, which should hopefully update the name. In Terminal/iTerm, run mdimport /Applications/Deliveries.app Probably not relevant, but somebody might find this trick useful: I sometimes need to start an application with German locale on my English system (so it uses German number formatting etc.). I added a File Action connected to the following script: new_locale='de_DE@currency=EUR' original_locale=$(defaults read -g AppleLocale) defaults write -g AppleLocale "$new_locale" open {query} defaults write -g AppleLocale "$original_locale" This only affects one application, and the best bit is it doesn't change the application language, so I don't have to deal with Apple's weird German translations.
