I tried doing this and a notice popped up saying it couldn't install because of a region problem. Is there anything else I could try?

You can't install Supernatural because of a regional issue ? That is a know issue for WA but EA has long ditched the Regions.
Where did you buy SN ? Where did you buy the Base game ?
What is the exact error message you're getting ?

hi. i did click on the website u gave. but then i says "the setup has detected that no version of The Sims3 is installed. this update requires that a previous version of the application be installed."
what should i do?

Everytime I try to install the sims supernatrual it says "the setup has detected that version 1.48.005 is already installed. this set up installs on an ealier version of the sims 3 (1.0.631). you will have to uninstal previous version before installing this version"
does that mean i have to uninstall all my sims3 games and expansions and then start over? i dont have the cases to them anymore and wont beable to reinstal any of them.

Are you sure you have the right disk in ? From the error message it sounds like you want to install the base game again.
Is your base game and SN the disk version ?

Are you on a mac ?
If so. here's a few trouble shooting steps: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-3/Links-to-Mac-help-threads-and-guides/m-p/749664#U749664
If those don't help, I would suggest posting in the mac forum at thesims3.com (make sure your language is set to US): http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/forums/show/205.page since macs are not well covered on the AnswerHQ.
