I specifically hit the little British Flag button on the machine inside T1 at MUC, and it worked once I had the machine responding. In other words, press a button, THEN press the UK flag. Worked fine.

(I, along with a number of other foreign travellers-- not all english/American, were pretty shocked that the instructions were only listed in german on any of the ticket machines in the airport terminal, especially given that MUC is such a big tourist destination.) This was the only major city where I found this to be an issue. Other than that minor hiccop, it is a very easy trip into the main train station, and the city itself is very easy to navigate
