Thanks, Kornel, it is strange, that MacTeX says, that biblatex is installed, and biber also. Both are not available. I reinstalled both now, via teX Live Utility but it did not change anything. I do not really understand where to add the file you mention, because in my usr no layouts-directory exists (OSX10.10.3).
I also checked my old system, there the biblatex.module ist not selected, but biber. Here it does not even appear, so it is not only biblatex.module, but also Biber I could not use. I would prefer Biber, because I have used it in the last year and it worked well. Why does the Biber-module not appear in my document preferences?
