I have exactly the same problem. I cannot find any answers. I have been sitting here for at least 2hrs trying every way i can think of, for getting the content to play.

The world is in the installed section as and object and a world but not in my drop down box when start new game.

Any help would be appreciated.

I went ahead and reinstalled everything including the base game itseld--now everything seems to be showing up. Thank you for your help. If I had waited for a reply before uninstalling the entire game, I would have tried the backup method you linked in the above message. (I'm backing up anyway in case this happens again!)

  yeah my internet is super slow as we have had some rough weather here it effects the loading up time on the page 🙂
  and those backups come in very very handy when there is a game updates too 🙂

  I don't know if this will help, but the thing that finally did it for me was re-installing the custom content (believe me, I had a lot!) AFTER reinstalling the purchased worlds and venues.
  1. Base Game
  2. Purchased Worlds
  3. Purchased Venues
  4. Downloaded content (hair, furniture, etc.)
  Hope this helps!
