Sometimes I want to add new backend users to a Typo3 website. And everytime I wonder how to change the backend language. The online help is wrong! It tell's you to install the corresponding csh_XX-extension. But this is obsolete!

Do the following steps to add German or any other language:

• choose Extension Manager the Menue "Translation Handlling"
• select the desired language
• save
• verify / update from Repository

Now you may change in User settings the backend language. Relogin and done!
