Need help with sims 4 packs

A few years ago, I downloaded the sims 4 and the ea app on my laptop. This January I got a steam deck. I purchased a few expansions thru the ea app thru a discount website and I only purchased them for the ea app because I couldn’t find steam versions. I have tried a few times to download the packs on to my steam version of sims 4 without redownloading the ea version of sims 4 but I can’t figure out how to not download the game and just download the packs. Please help.

    AlfalfaLuigi87  Can you open the EA App separately, or at least access it while Sims 4 or another game is open?  If so, click Library, then Sims 4 > Manage > Manage add-ons, and try downloading your packs from there.  This is how it works in Windows, and while I know Steam OS is different, the EA App itself should mostly work the same way there too.

    If this doesn't help, are your EA and Steam accounts currently linked properly?  The easy way to tell is to try to login to the EA App or any EA site with your Steam credentials.  If you land in the correct EA account, you're fine; if anything else happens, there's a problem with the link.
