Re: Things are taking a little longer than usual to load up. Hang tight while we try

Hey, clearing cache has not done anything for me. EA was working fine yesterday and now all of  a sudden its 'taking a while to load'. Any other solutions that may have worked for other people?

Cheers

    I have this same issue every day, the way I fix it is to first open the EA App, and if I see the error open Task Manager and end every EA task. That usually fixes it for me.

    Otherwise, just keep the EA app installer downloaded and uninstall and reinstall the EA app if the above doesn't work. Those are the only two fixes really

    if you're still facing the issue try :

    fully Close EA app from your tray then do this  
    Task manager > Processes > EA background services > End task 
    it did the trick for me

    This fixed for me, too!! (2 days long problem) 

    Quick note, the icon is not the typical EA logo, so just look at the name of the program to find it on the task list.

    I just did this before trying the uninstall/repair solution & my games are once again showing up. It'd been giving me that error for the past 3 days. Thanks so much! I have so many Sims to check on.

    That one worked for me. I hadn’t played in months because I needed a new computer so this is only my third day. Have a feeling I’m going to really dislike EA soon.

    Thanks, I was having an issue with it today and really wanted to update the sims 4 since a new patch came out today. This trick worked, so I'm glad. Thanks again.
