@abc1247333681  Move the entire Sims 3 folder to the desktop and try again.

If that doesn't help, please open Terminal, in Applications > Utilities, copy and paste this command, and enter:

find / -name "Version.tag" 2>/dev/null

Then post the results.  (Feel free to black out or delete your username, but please leave the rest intact.)  I'd like to see whether there's another copy of this file lurking somewhere on your computer, and if so, where it is.
