And I assume IP is the one you have in.
Does the disc have any scratches ? I'll forward this to our mac helper for better help.
Thank you so much for looking at my issue! And forwarding me to someone else.

Is anyone still helping me with my issue or have they given up? The disc I am using is the proper disc for the game.
- Anonymous12 years agoYou mentioned that you recently downloaded patch 1.66, the brand new one. Did you get it through the Updates tab of the Launcher or did you download the manual patch file? At the bottom of the Launcher does the number confirm that you are now at that patch level?
Do you have mods or custom content that might be incompatible with the new patch?
Sometimes the disc authorisation error happens randomly. It is often just the disc having a mad moment and after a few tries it works. Either that or the disc is damaged as Crinrict suggested.
If you cannot get it working you could consider uninstalling the disc version of IP and then downloading and installing the digital version from Origin. Then you will not need the disc any more.

I downloaded the patch from the start up game menu. It said I had an update, so I updated. It said that it needed to add the patch, so I put in my personnal computer password and downloaded the patch. The cd is in perfect condition. I have tried playing it 11 times since I updated it. I would hat to reinstall the game I have saved games on it. And they took me a looong time to get where I am at! This issue isn't going anywhere.
