To help fix that in the manual installs I had to do as well, I downloaded the offer files I was missing from this site: http://dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/Downloadable_content_%28Origins%29 and then used the updater found in the game's install folder, bin_ship folder, daupdater, point that at the dazip files that you downloaded and it works. It still tries to install the dlc though the in game downloader at startup though, all still listed as download failed, but in game it works fine so far.

Can you check if your CD key is installed? http://answers.ea.com/t5/Dragon-Age-Origins/SOLUTIONS-UNAUTHORIZED-DLC-or-MISSING-DLC/m-p/470470/highlight/true#M1204

Hello.

I have same problem.
I have bought the game from Origin and didn`t have any issues with DLC when I was playing DAO in 2009.

But few days ago I reinstalled the game with 1.05 patch. All DLC are showing as Install Failed. I have tried to install DLC without 1.05 patch but it didn`t help.

Then I tried to install DLC manually and started new game. DLC are showing as Installed but Location for Stone Prisoner`s start quest Sulcher Pass isn`t appearing in game. For my new character I was finding augment crystals for Shale in the game.

Also I have tried to load old saves. All content was working and Shale was there with my old character in game.

Thanks for letting us know that those links work again. They were down for what ever reason when I first started trying to do manual installs. I got my offer file and Stone Prisoner works fine now.
