Since I updated my Mac to OSX Yosemite, I can't log in to Microsoft Lync (14.0.9). The program keeps trying to connect, then connects for a second and disconnects back. This doing in an infinite loop. Changing the language on my computer to 'English' resolves the problem.

Skype now supports Mac OS X’s latest version — Yosemite users rejoice.
The new version not only supports Mac OS X Yosemite, but it also has better group profiles (making it easier to copy a link or leave), and a couple of crash fixes. Skype 7.0 came out only 20 days ago and had a myriad of small design and feature updates.

Microsoft has also updated its Lync for Mac app, adding support for Yosemitie, media resiliency, and conversation history.
Regarding its media resiliency, the company notes in a blog post:
First, if a network disconnect occurs, Lync for Mac will now automatically rejoin a meeting or reconnect a peer-to-peer call as long as network connectivity is re-established within 30 seconds.
(Try it for yourself. Setup a Lync video call on your Mac. Quickly disconnect and reconnect your network cable, or disable and re-enable your wireless connection. You’ll see the video freeze when the network drops and then restart once connection is re-established.)

Second, Lync for Mac will now maintain the media connection for peer-to-peer calls if connectivity is lost to Lync Server or Lync Online. This lets voice calls continue even when presence information is no longer available.
The new Mac app also has conversation history that is actually saved in Exchange, not just local on your Mac. Perhaps the biggest advantage of this is that if a user chooses to save the history on Exchange, they can access it from different Mac computers — perhaps if they have one for work and for personal use, for example.
