Password Problems!
This problem is relating to both Origin itself as well as The Sims 3. I tried to log into the TS3 website and was informed my email address or password was incorrect. I did a password reset and logged in just fine. I then logged out and about ten minutes later tried to log in and was told again, my password or email was incorrect. This happened for the rest of the day. I reset it, tried to play TS3 and could not log in during game play because it would tell me my password or email was incorrect. I tried logging into the Origin program (which my Sims game almost always tells me I cannot connect to but I usually get the updates anyways?) and the Origin client tells me improper email or password. So I use their password reset system. Later, I am again being told my email or password is incorrect. The only thing I could think of was that my password was not fitting some parameters but that did not make any sense as it was letting me log in with it right after I reset it and only a bit later telling me it was invalid.
I made an official help request from EA and was directed to reset my password here: https://profile.ea.com/forgotpassword.do
that seems to have fixed my problems. Hope this works for anyone else having the same issue!
