Change date format to European

Currently the date on the top bar appears to be American format. Can someone advise how to change to European format. Thanks!

This is solved in the language settings as he says, but you have to go to language and text - formats - dates, then select "customise" and from there you can drag the items into the display format of your choice. Note: it may look weird on the page and seem badly alligned after moving them around but once you close that window it will appear ok on the top bar.
