Well danggit, no official response to this yet so let me provide more information as requested....
- When you bought the game (before of after Origin)
I bought my copies long before Origin came out
- Where you bought the game (Steam, Origin, Amazon, Gamefly, etc...)
Best Buy on DVD
- What version of the patch is installed
1.05
- What version of the game you have (Digital, hard copy, what edition)
Retail DVD, Standard Edition
- What exactly is happening (Is the DLC showing under installed, but not triggering in-game? Is the download starting at all, etc...)
I've kind of already said that above, but nothing shows up in the Available Tab. The DLC I should have appears in the Download Tab and a red exclamation point shows in the top of the tab. Everything says ready, but when I go to download them, they time out and fail. Nothing but DA: Awakening shows up in the Installed Tab.
When I manually install these they begin showing up in both the Installed Tab AND the Download tab, but still fail to download. The exception is the Stone Prisoner who's installer is broken. For this to manually install I had to hand-modify the Addins.xml to contain the correct XML block for that DLC.
If I do not hear from you within 24 hours I will contact again. When I previously spoke with customer service they said "This has been a known bug since the DLC was in Beta." I have the chat logs if you want to see them - but that is horrible to have not been fixed in so many years. They were unable to help me because I own a version of the game those help links do not cover (standard edition).
Thank you for your help in this.
This is almost the exact situation I am in.

Having the exact same issue.
Updated to 1.5 after a clean reinstall... and no dlc content will download
The downloads are all listed as available... but there is a red bang on the tab for downloadable content.
All the various items show that the game version is red. (are all of them saying it's an unsupported version?)
All of them sit at 0% downloaded and will not download
Someone at EA games needs to pull the stick out and get to work fixing this issue instead of sitting on their butts.
This issue has NOT been solved.

This happened to me today, and not sure if this is your issue, but thought I'd share mine. I'm reinstalling after 2 year on a new PC, so I had forgotten a lot.
I had to go to the Bioware Social site, and look at my purchased list, and download it again (even though it showed in game as DL'ing) and install again with the daupdater, found in your bin_ship folder. Hope this helps someone.

Hi gamestress,
Glad to hear a manual install worked for you. Thanks for sharing this solution with the community!
