Spore Won't Open On Mac High Sierra

Hi @BlackandGold18

we've  already the same question here

https://answers.ea.com/t5/Spore/spore-won-t-launch-and-says-SPORE-TM-ended-unexpectedly/m-p/6546960#M8845

Try out the fix 

Hey, I found preferences, but I can't seem to find Spore preferences.

Then go to the Spore icon with right-click.
Say Show package contents.
Navigate to folder Contents ➡️MacOS and launch Spore via one of the cider exce

Same problem after click on the cider exce :/

I need more information about your machine,

trying to install from disc but installer hangs under High Sierra. What do I do please?

Hi @Artemis0410

The Mac doesn't have a CD drive unless you are using an external device.

It's not easy to install the game over. Better would be a digital download over Origin.

Please feel free contact a game advisor in this case

I've followed so many threads to get SPORE to run on my macOS High Sierra but nothing has worked thus far. What else can I do?

Hi @SacredFlan

It may be possible that games like Spore are no longer running on new Mac machines.

Because Apple has ended the 32bit support. Spore is an older game which requires 32 bit systems.

Therefore it is important how you want to install it via CD or DL Origin

Hi @Freggi-Liz

I managed to get SPORE to launch and run via the cider after I downloaded it through the Origin app. However now the Creepy and Cute Parts Pack also purchased via Origin isn't working. Also now that I know SPORE can run on my machine how do I get it do simply get SPORE to launch via the Origin application? 

Thank you for your dedication to the community.
