      Hello! Yes, I started on the READ THIS FIRST THREAD before I commented. That doesn't address my issue that goes into what if you need to troubleshoot. I'm unable to download the game at all to my MAC. I've downloaded both Origin and Steam but once you get them on your MAC it says the game is for PC only. I then contacted EA twice and they said the game is not available for MAC users so I found myself at this message board and people have obviously downloaded it the past but they said they are no longer providing the software for new MAC computers. Thanks anyway!

        There is not, and never has been, a Mac compatible version of TS4 on Steam. If you purchase and download the game through Origin the Mac version will be available to you 🙂 Just make sure not to buy the EA Play subscription as that is also Windows only (why I merged your thread).
