I have the same problem. I am on a mac and I have tried an external drive as well as my internal drive. My mac can read the disk and its contents fine, and installing the game worked fine. But like everyone else, it has that "No Disk Found" Error after loading. This is very frustrating and I am yet to find an actual solution from EA. Looks like there are alot of people having the same problem. http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/671912.page

    I am moving this thread to the stickied Mac disc error thread posted on this forum. If you read the opening post you will find the only working solution at the moment using Origin and a digital download of your most recent EP/SP.
