i'm on Mac and just switched to the EA app and when I log in i'm missing 3 add-ons I had previously purchased (Jungle Adventure, Street Fashion kit, and Luxury party stuff to be specific). They are downloaded but showing as greyed out in my manage add-ons tab saying "Available on Windows".
I switched from PC to Mac over a year ago and had no issue with these packs when I was using Origin on my Mac.
Any ideas on how to get these packs back into my game without having to repurchase them?
At the end of the conversation they said that the packs that I bought on steam are not working on mac. I explained that they were working on origin (mac) but they said they can not do anything about it. That's not fair. They are asking customers to pay 2 times for their packs.

@adecamb - I just tried, it didn't work for me. This has been unfortunate.
After downloading the EA app rather than Origin I have been having issues.
Was working fine initially, then I opened EA one day and my game had to be redownloaded since then my game packs are missing.
First majority of them were missing I updated the EA app and most of them are back but now 2 packs that I own are greyed out and not showing up in the game
I talked with someone over the chat. They said to try this, that this would work :
go to menu in the far-left corner of the EA app.under Help.Click App recovery.Select Clear cache.Restart computerI tried it twice, it did not work and they closed the chat. lolmaybe it will work for you guys.I was usually playing Sims 4 on my MacBook using the EA app, but since yesterday, 3 add-ons from Sims 4 have been deleted, saying they are only available on Windows. I remember receiving them through Epic Games when they were distributed for free in the past. My computer is a MacBook, so I was able to use it without any problems even after converting from the Origin app to the EA app, which is absurd. Has anyone experienced the same problem as me and solved it?
I'm playing on ios Mac book. I'm havig trouble being able to download My Jungle adventure and The sims 4 Fashion Street kit. The pack and kit refuses to aknowledge my macd book even though I own the pack and says that it can only be downloaded on window. Before switching over to EA app my pack and kit were downloading fine. I hope that this issue will be resolve soon as it is very inconvient for me having own the pack and not being able to use what I own.
Thank you.

The three packs that were free on the epic games store, I claimed and was able to use on origin on Mac after linking my accounts, but now that I am forced to use the EA app on Mac, these packs now say windows only and won’t let me download them. They worked perfectly fine on origin on Mac and it should not be a problem for it to work on EA app on Mac. I also had the same thing happen with the deluxe bonus content, even through that was purchased on origin. It still says windows only.

Unfortunately Steam do not have Mac compatible sims 4 content.
I recently start playing sims4 on EA, but the problem is that I can't download dlc mods that I've bought on steam and it says the dlc only works on windows. So does that mean I have to buy the same dlc twice on Mac OS?PLZ help me Orz
