Re: Origin for OS X 10.6.8

@HaleyDanielleRos  Then in all likelihood, Origin just won't run on your OS.  Even if you could get it going though, you wouldn't be able to play Sims 3 or 4.  Your computer doesn't have enough RAM for either game, even just the base game on the lowest settings.  Even if it were possible to upgrade, and I'm not sure it is at this point, you would likely not be able to go above 2 GB RAM, which still wouldn't be enough.  I'm sorry, but there really isn't any way to make TS3 or TS4 work on this computer.

If you happen to own Sims 2 discs, you could probably play.  Aspyr also sells a digital download version of TS2 through the App Store, although you'd want to contact Aspyr to make sure it would run properly.  Even Sims 1 might work—I know it runs on Leopard, but maybe not Snow Leopard.

    I heard the sims 4 wouldnt run, but wasn't to sure about sims 3, and i wanted to rule out that it was just me that didn't know to much about Mac. 
    I really appreciate the help!
