The code you entered has already been used. Please check the code entered and try again. If you continue to receive this error it may be that the code has already been applied. If you need further assistance, please go to Contact Us.
- I have the same problem I tried the codes for all of my expansion packs and it just wont work. Let me know if you've figured it out.
@linnellingsund How old is the email? As of Windows 10 and El Capitan, these operating systems will no longer support SecuROM and SafeDisc. What does this mean to you? A new install has to use the new DRM - Origin. A reinstall will have to use Origin. If you buy a pack from Origin you will have to patch your game to use DRM of Origin. IMO this is better as now there is no install limit and you don't need a disc to play. SecuROM and SafeDisc were considered rootkits. SecuROM and SafeDisc never fully accomplished their purpose and both were poorly supported. You need to create an account in Origin and redeem the codes (base game and packs) in Origin and I would recommend installing by digital downloads. You can install from disc but you will have to use the manual 1.67 super patch then have Origin patch to version 1.69. Packs from disc will have to patch. It's not as bad as it sounds. I had to go through the conversion when I upgraded to Windows 10. My game runs without problems and I was even able to add a pack from Origin with no issues.
Don't feel bad I just bought The Sims™ 3 Worlds Bundle and I can't even find the thing to down load it I have repaired and Repatched and I cant even redeem the code at all
@litalstar You can download the Origin client installer at this link - Origin installer download - install - and redeem code for base game. Once the code is accepted the game icon should appear in the library and you can install from there.
