Battlefield 3 DLC Not Working [PC]

Hello guys,recently i bought for Battlefield 3 from Kinguin two DLC'S: Back to Karkand and Close Quarters.
The Close Quarters downloaded ~2,8GB but i can't join any server that has Close Quarters DLC.
Also,the Back to Karkand is not even downloading,and when i go to "Game Details",the "i" behind the Play buttion,i see the Back To Karkand,that says Purchased,and Close Quarters that says Play,Repair.
Please help.

    That's a good explain.
    But i fixed it by trying multiple ways:
    First thing,might be the attempt to wait.I waited somewhere about 30 minutes.Between the 30 minutes i tried to:


    *Important to have Origin closed!*


    1.Navigate to the place where you installed Battlefield 3.(In your Hard Disk chosen to install Origin>Origin Games>Battlefield 3)
    2.Enter in "Support" Folder.

    3. Enter in "EA Help" Folder.

    4. Enter in "en-us" Folder.

    5. Delete "Electronic_Arts_Technical_Support.glo".
    6. Start your Origin then give Battlefield 3 a "Check for Updates".
    Then i tried an server with Back to Karkand DLC,that thanks god worked,then an Close Quarters,and same,working.

  • Back to Karkand is part of the main body of the game since it came with the limited editions so that is why you cannot download .

    Regarding joining Close Quarters servers are they just not visible or do you click on the server to join and it says that you need the DLC?
