An issue with installing The Sims 3 Outdoor Living Stuffs on my Origin library.

I've purchased the actual game disc, but decided on installing a copy of it on my Origin's game library for convenience sake. So far this is what I've done and probably somewhere along the lines, lea...

    In my case what I've done is installed the game on the PC by using my disc. However I've also redeemed the code on Origin so that should I ever lose the disc I can still play. 

    When I go to Origin now, I get an option to "play" so perhaps that's what you need to do - install the game off the disc and then play off Origin. I'm not really the best but that should work.

    Gotta run now but if you reply will only be able to help you in several hours. 

    Enjoy your day! (Assuming it's daylight where you are) 😕mileyvery-happy:

    I understand completely. I saw last night (I was thinking of this post) that when I go into Origin and to My Games I get the option to "play". Now I have installed the game off my disc - and so when I pressed "play" my launcher started and obviously you play that way. 

    So I advise you to install the game off the disc so that you can actually play but I think that you should contact EA about the download problems. I will also see what I can do for you.

If you click on someone's name you should see an option on the lower right to "add to my friends". With the Answer HQ it's kind of pointless but it's still nice to do. On Origin there has been a huge problem with friend requests but are you on the Sims 3 website?

Also, there's no need to be embarrassed! 😕mileyvery-happy: Everyone is learning new stuff everyday (especially me!!! 😕mileylol🙂 And besides the whole point of having the Answer HQ is that you help people. It was a pleasure to try and help you. Thank you.
