    wow!!

    that worked!! 

    thanks so much. I was getting really desperate. I spent hours yesterday trying to get in contact with Origin, and then when I did, their answers didn't work. And then I couldn't get in contact with them again.

    thanks so much, you are a legend

Hi @sheridanhoughton 

From your game library in Origin, you can right-click The Sims 4 game tile, select Show Game Details-> More-> Expansion Packs. You should see Get to Work listed here with an option to download the DLC. Can you please attach a screenshot to your post of what you're seeing in your game library when you try to download this pack?

    hi Solaire,

    thanks for your reply.

    I tried your suggestion. When I right clicked on the tile, screenshot 2 shows the result. 

    When I click to open 'show game details', screenshot 3 shows the result. 

    maybe things don't work out as expected because I am using a mac?

      @sheridanhoughton  Bring up screenshot 3 again, then scroll down a bit, and you should see a More header.  Click that.

      EA_Solaire provided Origin-specific instructions; the game library doesn't work like this in the EA App.
