why can't the sim4 kit download after purchase?

I recently just bought the Modern Luxe kit and every time I press the download button it won't download. In the sims4 game it says I already own the kit, but it won't download on the Ea app.

    Let's try the following steps, let me know how this works for you:

    • Open task manager, locate EA Background Service, and end task
    • Clear the cache for the EA app
    • Run the EA app as an administrator 
    • Check for any background applications blocking the EA App
    • Try lowering your User Access Control Settings:
      • Close the EA app
      • Click the Windows button and type "UAC" in the search field
      • In the User Access Control window, click and hold the slide bar —slide it to the lowest setting available
      • Click Okay the bottom of the window
      • Open the EA app client and try starting the download again
