The licence limit for this product has been reached

I just downloaded Sims 3 University life on my laptop and when I try to play it the message comes up saying "The license limit for this product has been reached, please contact EA support for help." and I haven't downloaded this version on any other computers so the license should not be reached yet. What can I do?

    Did this actually work for you ? Cause what you're doing is changing the region of your in a file.

    2 is worldwide and 7 is the download version. TBH, I would not recommend doing that since you could end up messing up your game and having other issues.

    With licence limit reached, it's far better to contact CS support to reset your license.
