Qtcore4.dll not found solution

This happened to me when I downloaded the EADM's newest patch. The patch still dl'd but I knew something was wrong.

I followed your instructions and I'm happy to say that "It worked!"

Thanks!

same here, thanks very much. First thing I did before trying anything else was click the link above and it automatically fixed it once the page loaded.

uninstall EADM in the control panel - uninstall programs. There you will see all the programs windows has installed. You may see 2 EADMs, Click on EADM and click uninstall. The link in my post will download EADM installer to your computer and no other programs (just don't click on anything to buy). Find the download (it should have an icon with EADM). Click the icon to install EADM.

seiladvbx - That error is different. file not found refers to a file in the TS3 care files. This could be something simple as a music file you deleted and a file a mod changed. All it takes is to change the date of the file and you get this error. Sometimes you can download the patch directly.

if this doesn't work you need to save your data and uninstall and reinstall to restore unsaid file (I don't like it either but it's the only way I found that works).

Qtcore4.dll is part of EADM and should be in c:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\EADM directory (for 32 bit systems). If it's not there you need to reinstall eadm.

Uninstall old eadm and install eadm you just downloaded.

This should not affect the playability of the game as this is only the download manager.

Thanks. That did it.

Of course now... the download manager thinks it's needed to install EVERYTHING! Is anyone else having trouble with the download manager taking over any time ANYTHING starts?

Is there any way to delete this pain of a program? I've never used it, anyway.

Actually you do need the download manager to install patches, updates, CAW worlds, and new eps and sps. Also if EA makes a new world like they did Riverview, the launcher request the EADM or doesn't want to install it. It should only be active when your game needs updating anyway or when it's called upon to activate - which most of the time the launcher is doing the calling. Uncheck automatic updates on the launcher's update page - then you can decide when you want the EADM to activate.

Also when EA updates the EADM, it will then activate as well usually.

thank you

Ok, I don't know what's going on. I downloaded it but it was still bothering me. Also, every ten minutes the reminder would pop up telling me that I don't have QtCore4.dll
Can someone help?

Thank you for this information. I found out on Tuesday when I went to make sure World Adventures wsa all patched up before Ambitions, and got this error while trying to patch.

To bad this wasn't posted then, would have saved me a lot of of time and aggrovation, as I assumed it was a missing file and deleted both games adn reinstalled in hope of fixing it.

Whoever put up that Cumulative Patches post really helped me install.

How would EADM go missing, because when I went to uninstall after reading solutions to it, I went to Windows Uninstall/Change Program, and while all indications it was on my computer, including on the bar and desktop, even in my EA Games folder, my computer said no file existed.

Once I installed EADM it worked fine, patching 1.12 and 2.7 without any problems.

And just a quick question. If I have to do it again, i didn't have to do my registry, which is a good thing as neither me or my tech sister are willing to go that far, is there any way to work around that?
