Sim can't sleep or nap - can't use bed

sometimes it's the bed it's self , buy a new one see what happens

Did you try resetting the Sim ? Also is it a single or double bed or did you try both ?

Hmm, I haven't tried resetting them, as they weren't stuck as such. I will try that and report back.
As for the bed, yeah, I sold it, and got another one, but the same one. However, I have tried to get her to sleep in other places in the house, other beds, both single and double, even napping on the couch! Nope! Seems she's paranoid about closing her eyes, lol!

*Update edit*

Tried the reset thing...nope!
Also tried buying a single bed and just dumping it near the old one, just to try again. Nup....same thing.

What else ya got?  :P

I'm kind of used to their quirky little bugs by now, it's just annoying. I hate to waste effects of a perfectly good potion. 😕mileyfrustrated:

*sigh* I was hoping not to have to go to that length. I find it a bit difficult, but I'll try. 🙂
I'll give that a go and see what happens.
Thanks 🙂
(I'll report back in with a yay or nay soon)

Stupid game... *grumbles*

*update edit*

well, colour me surprised...that worked, lol!
Hell of a lot of effort and fuss to go to though.

I wish EA would stop breaking their games. The game is always fine until one of those updates comes along.
Thanks for your help. It's greatly appreciated. :D

Regards,

Sasha  🙂

For anyone having the same problem, I moved out the entire family AND house with all contents, then bulldozed the old house, then dumped the saved house and family on the now empty lot.

Hope this helps someone else. 🙂

your welcome 🙂 happy it worked for you

I had the same problem then I Build one bed in one room with lights off ... got sim to bed ...

I had the same problem and only the move out thing fixed it... but I lost all my wishes, opportunities and all of my 16 friends...
And now, I can sleep, but I can't get my mail and I'm stuck on the top floor of a building, unable to get into the elevator even though there is nothing blocking the path.
I'm at wits end. Hours wasted. And the fun is gone.
I really wish EA would test their games better before selling them... 

This exact same thing happened to me. This is how I "fixed" it: save, close and restart computer (not sure if needed). I noticed that the problem was gone.

Maybe just restarting the game will do the same trick. 

Another possible solution, just in case a user getting the problem now finds this thread on Google:

When I had this issue, it turned out that the top parts of my four-poster bed were interacting with the ceiling-hung lamp and a projecting box over the curtain rail. I've fixed it by switching to a no-poster bed or, on another occassion, by moving the lamp and window (with its curtains).
