Keyboard Shortcuts not working
I updated my Mac Mini to macOS Tahoe 26 this afternoon and when I went to play this evening, I realized that the speed up hotkeys (1, 2, and 3) were not working. “P” did not pause or play the game again… I didn’t change anything on my end, so thought it was strange. Anyone else?
Game crashing or not loading especially after updating? Post here.
If your game is crashing or not launching after recently updating it please try the two most basic and fundamental steps to resolve it before posting: Repair the game in EA App Test a new clean game. Don't just cherry pick a few files and folders you think you should remove, such as just the Mods folder, or a few random Mods, or any old cache file, or a couple of screenshots, test a completely new, clean, vanilla game. Full instructions here - [INSTRUCTIONS] How to troubleshoot and test a broken game | EA Forums - 11864548 If your game successfully launches with a new Sims 4 folder you then need to figure out what is causing the crashing/failure to load. Again, instructions are in this link - [INSTRUCTIONS] How to troubleshoot and test a broken game | EA Forums - 11864548 . Only you can do that and it can take some time. if the cause is Mods head over to the Mods forum for further help - The Sims 4 Mods & Custom Content | EA Forums if the cause is one or more particular save files, upload them to a file sharing site and post the link here (tag me) or PM me and I can test in my game If your game will not load after repairing it AND testing a completely clean Sims 4 folder please uninstall and reinstall the game through EA App then test, still using the clean Sims 4 folder the game created from the previous step. If you're still having an issue post here with the specs of your Mac. You can find these in Apple > About This Mac: model, e.g. M4 MacBook Pro year, e.g. 2024 macOS version, e.g. Sequoia 15.3.2 (yes, the FULL version is important, with all numbers) memory, e.g. 64GB storage available, e.g. 1.5 TB of 2TB. This info can be found in System Settings > General > About or More Info... in the About This Mac window. Please also post a screenshot showing the contents of the new Sims 4 folder in Finder: make sure the files are in list order in Finder with Dates and Size clearly visible. make sure all files and folders in the TS4 folder are showing, don't cut off the screenshot have the path bar clearly showing in the screenshot: with the Finder window open and selected click on View > Show Path Bar in the menu bar at the top of your desktop. The screenshot should look something like this: Make sure to add a full description of what exactly is happening and what you have tried to fix it in your post. Be constructive to help us help you 🙂 The following are a few examples of short replies that are not constructive: "my game won't work" "my game has broken and I hate EA" "my game only works without Mods and I'm refusing to remove my Mods" "fix it" "my sister's friend's brother's aunty has the same computer and her game works" "I've tried EVERYTHING and NOTHING works"
[MAC] Sims 4 won’t launch after latest update – EA App minimises and reopens
I’m on Mac (details below) and since the most recent Sims 4 update, the game will not launch at all. When I press “Play” in the EA App, the Sims 4 game opens briefly then minimises again, but the Sims 4 itself never launches. There’s no error message — it just loops back to the EA App. I’m fully up to date with both macOS and the EA App, and I have multiple packs installed. I’ve tried restarting my Mac, repairing the game in the EA App, clearing cache, creating a fresh Sims 4 folder in Documents, and even uninstalling/reinstalling the EA App. Nothing has fixed the problem. This bug occurs every single time I try to play. Before the update, the game launched normally with no issues. I play without mods/CC, and the issue persists regardless. I’ve also seen other Mac users reporting the same thing in the forums since the August/September 2025 update, so it seems widespread. Could you please confirm if this bug is being tracked and whether a fix is planned in the next patch? macOS Monterey Version 12,6,2 MacBook Air (13-inch, 2012) Processor: 18 Giz Dual-Core Intel Core 15 Memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 Graphics Intel HD Graphics 6000 1536 MB Serial Number.

In all my saves, the in-game clock works normally until I travel, go into Manage Worlds, or reload the save. When I come back to the lot, the time jumps backwards by several hours (example: it’s 7 AM, I travel, and when I return it’s 3 AM). This causes my Sims to miss work and school because the game thinks it’s too early. Steps I’ve tried: – Tested with no mods and a brand-new save → bug still occurs. – Repaired the game several times. – Deleted cache files (localthumbcache.package). – Full uninstall/reinstall. – Bug happens on every save, not just one household. Expected Result: Time should stay the same when loading back from Manage Worlds, travelling, or restarting. Actual Result: Time resets to an earlier hour after travelling/Manage Worlds/reloading.
Unauthorised Video Card error on iMac
Hi everyone! So, I have Sims 4 on my imac and randomly my game crashed and all of my DLC redownloaded. My save files are still on my device but they're not in my game. When I open the game, it's like I've downloaded it for the first time -even though I haven't. Any advice in what to do? Thanks :)
iMac updated using OpenCore causing Sims 4 issues
hi after updating my iMac with OpenCore to macOS Sequoia, the sims 4 stopped working properly. the game launches, but when I try to load or start. new save it crashes, the screen goes completely black and then closes. it seems the game does not recognize my AMD RADEON R9 M290X graphics card correctly. I already tried everything: reinstalling, repairing the game, removing all mods, clearing caches, updating ea app, but nothing worked. is anyone else experiencing this after sequoia? any ideas or fixes?
Game Crashing Randomly Without Warning
Basically exactly as the title says. My game has been randomly crashing without warning. It will just disappear off my screen immediately. Sometimes a crash report will pop up after and sometimes it won't. Everything will be running perfectly fine until this happens. The only other issue I've been having is that my gallery will sometimes not work properly but I can't figure out why. I hope this is helpful: Process: The Sims 4 [75041] Path: /Applications/EA Games/The Sims 4.app/Contents/MacOS/The Sims 4 Identifier: com.ea.mac.thesims4 Version: 1.0 (1) Code Type: ARM-64 (Native) Parent Process: launchd [1] User ID: 501 Date/Time: 2025-09-04 01:40:42.0158 -0400 OS Version: macOS 15.6 (24G84) Report Version: 12 Anonymous UUID: A928FE3C-DE64-7F41-4CBA-389A0BF17BA6 Sleep/Wake UUID: 61D04ADF-14A9-497C-8B2D-7E90AF78C511 Time Awake Since Boot: 1000000 seconds Time Since Wake: 4166 seconds System Integrity Protection: enabled Crashed Thread: 23 Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV) Exception Codes: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS at 0x000000011b66a448 Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000001, 0x000000011b66a448 Termination Reason: Namespace SIGNAL, Code 11 Segmentation fault: 11 Terminating Process: exc handler [75041] VM Region Info: 0x11b66a448 is not in any region.

Lots not saving properly
Mac, Sequoia 15.5 When attempting to save my game in The Sims 4, the game appears to save normally without errors, but no progress is retained. After closing and reopening the game, all progress is gone, and the save file reverts to a previous state. Expected Result: The game should retain progress and load the updated save. Actual Result: No progress is saved; the game loads the older state as if no save had occurred. Troubleshooting Tried (Didn't fix the issue): Repaired game via EA App Removed all mods/CC (tested in a clean mods folder) Removed all mods affecting the Data/Delta Folders Deleted all cache files Restarted Mac Tried all variations/options of saving the game Tried installing the newest 5th-September Update Tried turning off the iCloud Settings "Desktop & Documents Folder" and "Optimise Mac Storage", then renaming the "The Sims 4" Folder under Documents to trigger generating the same, but a new, clean folder/game. (This did fix my issue for like 5 minutes, now I'm having the saving issue again) I always load back into the game at the same location, place a base game bush, load out, and then reload the save. It always disappears. The issue isn't with the bush mesh, though, since only the newly placed one is deleted, and this also happens with entirely new interiors, different lots/types of progress, etc. Additional Notes: The game does not display any error message during the save attempt The Issue persists across multiple sessions and attempts The Issue started occurring upon installing the August 2025 Update
My Progress is gone
Hi, My name is Katie, and I have been playing The Sims 4 since 2016. Today I updated my game, and it said it did not recognize my Video Card, so I restarted the game and went back into the game. I noticed that all my progress on my computer is gone, all my past play-throughs, buildings, families, everything. So I tried to repair it in the EA app, but nothing changed. It could be something on my end with my computer, but it hasn't had any issues in the years I have played on it. Is there anything I can do or suggestions? Thank you, KatieTwo finger zoom not working
The past two weeks for some reason the two finger zoom will not work on my mac. I have updated my game, my computer, turned the mac on and off, checked my settings, deleted mods, repaired the game, deleted and redownloaded the game but the two finger zoom doesn't respond at all. Actually the game wont respond to any two finger gestures even scrolling in CAS or build/buy🛠️ Creating a symlink in macOS to store the Sims 4 folder on an external drive
➡️ This is not to be confused with installing the actual Sims 4 game on an external drive. The game installation location is determined in EA App and there is no need to use a symlink for this. As internal storage gets smaller we're forced to use cloud based solutions to store files and folders or resort to a trusty external drive. Cloud based only storage is not an option for the Sims 4 folder that contains all your saves, Mods, Library items and other user data because the game only looks in one place for your data: Macintosh HD > Users > [your user account] > Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 If there is no Sims 4 folder in that location the game will create a new one. There is no way around this default Sims 4 folder location unfortunately, it is hard coded into the game. Because of this the only option to store the Sims 4 folder on an external drive is to create a symbolic link, otherwise known as a symlink. Creating the symlink is relatively easy provided you understand the concept of what a symlink is and why you are creating it. You should also be familiar with Terminal on your Mac and the security and permission systems in place in whichever version of macOS you are running as these dictate the ability for the game to access the external drive and whether your Mac user account has permission to grant the necessary access. You should also make sure you are using a good quality, fast external drive. You get what you pay for and if you bought a cheap drive, with low quality cables, you will most likely struggle to get the symlink to work because it will be too slow. For help buying an external drive and what to look out for read this guide. I am not going to write step by step instructions here, the post will be far too long. Instead, you can read the detailed and comprehensive guide I wrote several years ago here https://bluebellflora.com/saving-your-sims-4-folder-to-an-external-drive/ If your symlink is not working it is down to user error. It really is that simple. macOS is a Unix based operating system and as such uses Unix commands which are all provided in the above linked guide. This thread is for consolidating all posts related to the Mac symlink process here at Answers HQ. If you're a Windows user read Crinrict's excellent guide here https://crinrict.com/blog/2020/02/moving-windows-documents-folder-to-external-drive-via-symbolic-link.html. What I have provided below are a few of the common issues people face as a result of not entering the commands correctly or having the correct permissions in place. Common issues reported and the solution: Always check your external drive has the correct name in Disk Utility: open Disk Utility (Applications > Utilities) change View to Show All Devices then click on the drive in the left sidebar the Mount Point shows the name of your drive. If there is a number added to the drive name it means the drive has not been properly ejected multiple times Close Disk Utility and eject the drive In Finder click on Go in the menu bar then Go To Folder. Enter /Volumes in the input field and hit return in the /Volumes location, trash the folder(s) that has the same name as the external drive Close Finder, plug the drive back in, open Disk Utility again to check the drive name in the Mount Point. If it matches try to create the symlink In addition to checking the external drive mount point above, the following may also be helpful: Terminal states my access/permission is denied check your Mac user account is an Administrator account and not a Standard account. check that Terminal has access to external drives, also known as Removable Volumes, and your Documents folder. I'm constantly getting "Unable to start... Cannot start because the below file appears to be corrupted" error message make sure the external drive is correctly formatted as either APFS or Mac OS Extended (Journaled). If it isn't, reverse the symlink, reformat the drive in Disk Utility and start again. check your Mods actually aren't corrupted by downloading a compatible version from the creator. I keep getting the error message "Unable to start... The Sims 4 is already running" make sure the external drive is correctly plugged in and mounted. check EA App has access to the external drive in System Settings > Privacy & Security. Give it Full Disk Access if necessary. disable iCloud Drive if the symlink folder in Documents is a white page instead of a folder with the little arrow the symlink has broken. Trash it and attempt to recreate the symlink. Check the Mount Point in Disk Utility shows your exact external drive name and doesn’t have a number added to the drive name. If it does this means your drive has not been properly ejected multiple times. To fix it: eject the drive in Finder click on Go in the menu bar then Go To Folder enter /Volumes in the text field and hit Enter/Return in the Finder window that appears you should see a folder, not a drive icon, with the same name as your external drive. Trash it. plug the drive back in, check the mount point in Disk Utility is the exact drive name with no appended numbers, then try to create the symlink again. if the mount point is still showing a number you have problems with your drive. Consider reformatting it, trying different connector cables, or getting a better drive. Terminal tells me No such file or directory did you copy and paste the command from the guide and correctly substitute the name of your external drive? If you didn't copy and paste you may have used the wrong letters in the command. Copy and paste from the guide. Does the folder you are trying to move or create a symlink to exist in the location you are stipulating in the command? Terminal tells me Directory not empty in Step 1 Is there already a folder on the external with the same name as the folder you're moving? i.e. have you already copied over the Electronic Arts folder? If there is already a folder with the same name as the folder you're moving, Terminal will return this result. Terminal tells me File already exists in Step 2 of the guide Did you correctly complete step 1 or is there still an Electronic Arts or Sims 4 folder in your Documents folder? If the folder is still there you have not correctly moved it in Step 1. If you have iCloud Drive enabled to store your Documents folder in the cloud and Optimise Storage enabled, it will cause issues with the symlink. I strongly advise to disable this iCloud feature otherwise you will have issues, especially if you use Mods. As a reminder, creating this symlink is aimed at people storing their Electronic Arts/Sims 4 folder locally. Using iCloud Drive stores your folder in the cloud and locally.

Game crashes when viewing the house from a certain angle
Hello 🤗 I have been busy building and I realised that the game always crashes when I view the house from a certain angle. I never had this issue before. I run the game on a MacBook. Below, I've attached the LastCrash file, in case anyone understands what it says: why is my game crashing? Many thanks in advance! 💚
