Hi Juan,

If I try to search for Configuración inside the Moodle Desktop top menu I get Mac Help for Mac usage topics !

Hi German,

normally you will find all app settings in the first app menu under the app name in macOS. No, Moodle Desktop is not a normal Mac app in this case! 

Moodle Desktop does all the same things like Moodle Mobile. So you will find the language setting at the same place as you find it in Moodle Mobile. When you are connected with a Moodle site then you can open the main menu and you will find the settings at the bottom of the main menu.

Hi Ralf,

Thanks for the explanation and the images.

In my old Macbook with an old, non-retina display, the 'App settings' submenu was way too low, outside of the visible screen, and hidden from plain view. Only when I scrolled down, I could then (easily) see the 'App settings' submenu and change the language setting.

Now everything is shown in the right language pack.

Still, I wonder why the Moodle Desktop app did not choose my preferred Moodle language pack. There are 31 language packs to choose from smile

Many thanks to Ralf and Juan.
