I am running MacOS in English, but I want the region settings to reflect the country I am living in.
After upgrading from El Capitan to Sierra, date and currency formats broke. For example, if you set region to Finland, date format should be 26.9.2016 instead of 26/09/2016. Also the currency symbol should be shown after the value, 4 567,89€ instead of €4 567,89.
Days of week and months are untranslated.
Have you checked the "Advanced" tab for the date and time formats?
Right after the upgrade I found that the short format for the dates had been reset to include slashes, while I had previously removed them.
My region is set to Germany, but with the primary system language set to English, the months and weekdays are in English. I cannot find a way to change that.
Hi léonie,
You are correct, it is possible to manually modify the short date as it was.
The issue is, that the regional formats are broken by default. Also translations are missing as you said. Something Apple could fix in coming releases.
Best Regards,
Antti
