I now also Have this issue. and seem to be getting nowhere also. on a post I opened
the only suggestion (From another user, it worked for them) I received was to use the repair button under uninstall. I do not seem to have that option so I could not try.
This is the 3rd day I am dealing with this. Ther seem to be no answers anywhere for this.
I wish to make something clear to whoever it applies to:
WE PAID FOR OUR GAMES WITH OUR HARD-EARNED MONEY SO WE COULD PLAY THEM NOT TYPE HERE TO FIND OUT HOW TO FIX SOMETHING THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE PLAYING OF SAID GAME. IT IS WRONG TO MAKE GAMES THAT WE PAY FOR RELIANT ON SOMETHING WE ARGUABLEY DONT GIVE A (think of a word) ABOUT. OR HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE PLAYING OF SAID GAME.
I JUST WANT TO PLAY MY GAME!!
Just here to share the hate for EA and their garbage app. If it worked i wouldn't be here
I concur
If you live in the united states this is slightly annoying but fully legal to do.
step 1: buy a cd of sims 4 off any reseller
step 2: under US law if you own a physical copy of digital media you are allowed to make copies of it and use those copies on any device so long as it is for your personal use only and you are not sharing them (i.e. if you are playing it yourself on your own computer not giving copies to friends or streaming it to the public) and under current legal precedents it is while not explicitly stated but generally agreed that the sharing of copies is the crime in piracy not the receiving if the receiver has a physical copy. So find a ROM that is jail broken (under US law so long as you are not reverse engineering it you are allowed to modify code you purchased for personal use) and play that
step 3: Thank the ghost of Mr.Rogers because his expert opinion to the supreme court and congress on a case between publishers and betamax is what is cited as tipping the court's opinion in the favour of the consumer and what further lead to the passage of laws protecting our rights as consumers in regards to digital media.
Was this fixed because I'm having the same issue. After all this EA has broke my trust and their Customer support is ever * than the freaking app!! I can't play the games I paid for what more can I ask for.
