4) Select each localization file, Get Info->Change encoding to UTF-8

UTF-8 and UTF-16 both work fine, but Xcode seems to have a habit (or
had a habit, I don't know that I've seen this recently) of getting
very confused with the encoding of some files. Most of my
localization problems have been fixed by opening the .strings file in
BBEdit and making sure that it's saved correctly in UTF-8 or UTF-16.
There have been some cases where UTF-16 has actually worked more
reliably for me (Danish and Japanese). Not sure why.
Once I've done this, I go into System Preferences->Language and Text
and move one of the languages to the top of the list and run the
app. Every language is localized correctly, except for Italian. I've
removed my localizations, cleaned my project and a couple of times
and the results are the same. Googling didn't find any helpful
answers, but one post about iPhone localization said that I should
be using ISO codes (it, fr, en, etc) as the usage of French, Italian
and Spanish is deprecated, but removing my localizations and using
the ISO codes gave the same results. So I'm at a loss, if anyone has
any pointers, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Watch the console for errors.
