Re: Spore Won't update
Before you uninstall the game, install MacClean. This shows you all the hidden files of Spore.

Uninstall Spore over MacClean and move everything into the trash.
Navigate under \ Users \ [YourUserName] \ Library \ Preferences, delete the Spore Preferences folder.
Then clear the trash and restart the machine.
Install Spore again, don't open it.
Shutdown the machine, restart the machine again and open Spore, now do the game patching
