Key does not work on Sims 3 website
So I bought a digital version of Sims 3 base game. It kinda worked on the EA app but I'm having trouble using the key on the Sims 3 website. It says it couldn't register the code as if it was wrong o...

I will kind of try that... I bought all 21 discs separately (including base game) from people on the internet. Most of them were already used and probably 1/3 of them came sealed, that's why I was able to register High End Loft. I'm gonna download it from my brother's computer to see if the digital copy is actually working. Then I'll see if I uninstall the cd version from my computer.
but if I ever get the 1.69 patch can I still be able to install the other discs? And use it mixed with the digital version? I don't know if that's possible.
@warmcappuccino I haven't tested myself, as I only have a couple discs that I registered to my own account a long time ago. But from other players' reports, it's really hit or miss whether the EA App will recognize discs whose codes aren't registered. And when it doesn't work, there's nothing the player can do to fix it other than buying the game or pack(s) again.
I would suggest that staying with an all-disc install is likely to be more reliable. Since HELS is registered on the Sims 3 site, you should be able to install Store and Exchange content as well, but let me know if that's not the case.
It appears the store and exchange is working. But I failed to install World Adventures. It just kept giving me errors. First I thought I installed in the wrong directory, but then I saw that the game had recognised it so... I just deleted everything and HOPEFULLY it will work as it DID last week.
it's so annoying that I can't have both like I have registered a few packs yeah, but who cares if the others are pre owned? It's such an old game and they don't make cd copies of it anymore. I just wanted to go back in time a little, but it's just stressing me out. If it doesn't work anymore I'll be very upset.
