Re: the sims 3 ı can't install cc

@a0d4810170f06df3  When you download the files, do they have the .Sims3Pack file extension or something else?  If they are .Sims3Pack files, put them in Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 3 > Downloads, and they should show up in the launcher.  If they end in something like .zip or .rar, you'll need to extract them first.  MacOS can extract .zip files, but you'd need a third-party tool (try Unarchiver) for .rar or .7z files.

If you need more help, please describe what you're trying to do in more detail.  Feel free to post screenshots.

    @a0d4810170f06df3  Please remove your custom content and try again.  When the game closes in Create a Sim, in a specific category, that usually means bad cc.  You can start by removing shoes, but if that doesn't help, remove everything else too.  It's possible for bad cc to belong to one category of CAS or Build/Buy item but come with a different type of item attached to it.  You can also download a sim or lot that has bad cc attached to it.
