Re: MAC: Cannot see Installed Content in Sims 3 since last Game Update

OK, try this, which I've cut and pasted from BluebellFlora's Mac help thread:

Downloaded content not showing up:

If your Store downloads aren't showing up in game try deleting the missingdeps.idx file (thanks to Crinrict), the game will regenerate a new one: 

Finder > Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sim 3 > DCCache > missingdeps.idx 

This isn't a sure fire fix as Origin seems to be causing a lot of issues with the Launcher but it's worth a try. For more info read Crinrict's blog post here.

    Hi again,

    I'm not sure what is going on but there seem to be increasing numbers of players who are having trouble downloading content. I can only suggest continuing to try, use different browers, download one item at a time rather than in bulk, make sure you have the Launcher open before trying to download anything from the Store site. If I hear of any other fixes I will get back to you.
