Mac OS X 10.1: Language Updates for Mac OS X

Mac OS X is a multilingual operating system. You may use languages other than the one you selected during installation. Language updates install additional fonts and resources that allow more language choices to appear in the International pane of the System Preferences application. The "Available Updates" section below lists the languages that are available. You may also download combination installers that group the individual languages by region.

The language updates work with Mac OS X 10.1.5. If you do use a version of Mac OS X prior to 10.1.5, see technical document 106888: "Mac OS X Update 10.1.5: Enhancements and 'Before You Install' Information"

Note: If you have previously installed a Mac OS X Language Update before updating to Mac OS X version 10.1.5, you do not need to reinstall the language update(s)

After you have updated to Mac OS X 10.1.5, you can install language updates. Follow these steps:

1. Choose System Preferences from the Apple menu.
2. Choose Software Update from the View menu.
3. Click Update Now.

You should see language updates. After installing the software, you can add to the Languages list. To do that, follow these steps:

1. Choose System Preferences from the Apple menu.
2. Choose International from the View menu.
3. Click Edit.
4. Select the new languages that you wish to appear in the list.
5. Click OK.
