    I don't believe you can, but read here anyway:

    On a Macbook, all Apple apps should adopt the language of your OS.  Are there some that do not?  Which ones?

     

    For non-Apple apps, you may need to download separate versions.

    Tom,

    On my Macbook, google comes up in Thai but I found away around it.  My big problem is, my Iphone.  Google, the calendar and a few other apps are in Thai.  I don't want anything in Thai and I already know about and really don't care about Itunes. 

    To make it easier, this phone was original owned by one of my Thai students, so of course things are in Thai.  I just want to change what I can to English. 

    I went to the I store here and of course no one could speak English so that was a waste of time.

    I appreciate any help you can offer.

    For Calendar, try changing the Region setting to one where English is the native language.
