im having the same problem but i am not seeing an error message. when the game screen with content starts before the game, 2 expansion packs that i paid for and supposedly downloaded, dont show. But they show up on Origin as content that is installed.
@gospacerocket Which packs are missing, and what version does your game have? Please load the game to the Main Menu, where you can choose to load a save or start a new one, and look along the bottom of the screen, or in the lower right corner. Please list the entire version number, i.e. 1.xx.xx.xxxx.
Thank you for responding! I have sims 4 digital deluxe legacy edition 1.71.86.1620 the packs missing are the university, eco life style and tiny living pack.
@gospacerocket You're running the Legacy Edition of Sims 4, which won't run any packs released after October 2019. Those packs will still install, they just won't show up in-game.
If your Mac cannot in fact run the standard version of Sims 4, you can contact EA customer support and request a refund for the packs. Even though Sims 4 packs are usually not eligible for refunds, support often makes an exception in this case.
Oh wow I just realized, my computer is "old". 24 bit color graphics.
I wonder if everything will transfer over fine once I get a new computer?
thank you for taking theme to respond!
@gospacerocket Your Origin account owns your games, not your computer, so you'll be able to download Sims 4 and your packs on a new computer whenever you get one. Your saves can be transferred too and should work fine on the new computer. Saves that are run in the standard version of Sims 4 don't work in the Legacy Edition, but the reverse is not true.
When you're ready for a new computer, if you want to talk about computer specs or need help copying over your saves, feel free to post in one of the Sims 4 sections asking for advice.
