Dragon Age 2 DLCs - Steam/Origin

Same problem with me. It is stupid. 

Same problem as well. I went though EA help and they had no clue.

Friend of mine is having the same problem. Let's hope for some dev clarity on this one....

So I solved this by following this method posted by someone on Steam:

Launch Dragon Age Origins, log in to your EA Account from there. Alt-tab out, launch DA 2, try logging in to your EA account, it should work now (it did for me). Close both games, then launch DA2. You should still be logged in, and your DLC authorised.

Hope this helps. It's unlikely EA will officially address this any time soon.

Thank you so much! 

I´ve been struggling with this problem for 4 days now. 

Your solution fixed it!

Unfortunately, this didn't solve the problem for me.  For some reason I can't login in via Origins either.  This is unbelievable.

EDIT:  Updating this in case this helps someone else.  I changed my password on the EA website and was then able to log in to DA Origins and DA2 immediately and get the DLCs authorized.  I have no idea why this worked as I have had no issues with my password before.

EA help's fix for this was to use the EA beta app instead of origin to run the game. It worked for me but, it still won't work thru origin.  

I bought Dragon Age 2 on Steam. I have an EA account and it is linked with my steam account. When I run Dragon Age 2 from Steam it open Origin as normal and in Steam it shows that it is running but then Origin restarts and Steam stops showing that the game is running and then nothing happens. I`ve reinstalled Origin and Dragon Age 2 and I`ve cleared Origin caches, but nothing works. Has anyone got a fix for this?

@kartondoosI had a similar issue when attempting to run DAII on my steam deck, and it turned out to be due to a lack of specific required drivers. which I have noticed tends to be the issue with installing older games like this on any system.
First, Go On Nividia and download "NVIDIA PHYSX SYSTEM SOFTWARE 9.16.0318" Install this according to the instructions.
Next, you want to go into Dragon Age II's install folder, for me it's C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Dragon Age II but if you have it through Steam it may be in your Steamapps folder instead. Click on the __Installer folder, then the directx folder, and finally redist folder. Here you should find an exe called DXSETUP. Run this and install it.
At this point try running the game again, if the issue was that you didn't have the proper drivers it should now run.

This fixed it for me! Thank you! EA support was clueless, they didn't even know you could get the DLC free now.
