@dampetgk Origin shouldn't be popping up when you click Install for a store item. Normally, you'd get a second green plumbob in your dock, denoting the installer; the reason you'd need to click that plumbob is that the installer window is hidden behind the launcher by default. Clicking on the Origin logo would bring it up, as would clicking on the Origin window in the dock, but that's to be expected.
If Origin is showing up even though you're doing nothing to open it, try repairing Sims 3: open your Origin game library, right-click on the Sims 3 icon, and select Repair.
If that doesn't help, move the entire Sims 3 folder out of Documents > Electronic Arts and onto your desktop, open the launcher to create a new folder, and try downloading and installing Lucky Palms again. You may still need to wait a couple minutes, close the launcher, and reopen it in order for the process to work; again, look for the thumbnail depicting the world next to its name.
