Uninstall your most recent EP then download and reinstall the digital version from Origin. Instructions here.
I got the Sims 3 Starter Pack (with Sims 3, Sims 3:Late Night, and Sims 3:High End Loft) and Sims 3 University Life, installed them, but it keeps saying there is no disc. I just got Supernatural and Pets (I thought it was just cause University was the last one I downloaded) and I went to play,the Supernatural icon popped up, and then disappeared and University Life icon pops in its place and it says theres no disc, please help. I have a Mac.
Do you have the actual disc version of Uni or do you have the download one ?
Also are you using Store content in your game ?
Disc and No.
Could you post the exact wording of the message you're getting ?
"Disc Authorization Failure"
"No game disc found! Please insert The Sims tm 3 University Life disc before proceeding."
The disc is in, I've taken it out and gone Nintendo on it (blowing off any dust and stuff the might've gotten in there) and it didn't work. I'm a newby at Sims, so question: Is there a way to change it from the University Life disc to another? I'm getting sick of the loading page, and icon.
please help --
I wanted to play sims 3 because I haven't played in a very long time. I have it on origin and most of the expansion packs are redeemed codes from discs but not all of them. I had not problem redeeming the codes. I have downloaded them over and over again and I have tried to find this answer over and over but I can't find it. I only have the main game, island paradise, and generations installed right now. I know the problem is the mac updates, but I know there is an answer, just don't know where to find it.
First when I downloaded it, it would say "unknown error occurred" before I could even get to the launcher. Then I tried this thing that skips the launcher (https://robservatory.com/how-to-make-sims-3-work-in-macos-sierra/) and I got to the screen where you choose a town. Once that screen was loaded I get a message saying "no disc found....." it is on origin so I don't have a disc. What do i do? This is a MacBook air
@mgrocks18 This is you, right?

Let me know whether the Super Patch helps.
