i am having the same problem. I tried your previous instructions to no avail. when i attempt to download my store content the item in question goes to the sims3 game launcher. when i select it there and select download it just freezes. do you have any other suggestions? thanks
@Lemons927 When you click Install, do you see a second plumbob in your dock? If so, please click that: it's for the splash screen and installer window, which can be hidden behind the launcher.
no, just the one
@Lemons927 Please move your entire Sims 3 folder out of Documents > Electronic Arts and onto your desktop. Open the launcher to create a new folder, then download one item (a fresh copy) and try to install it. Let me know whether it works.
If the launcher still freezes, please make sure iCloud isn't automatically syncing the contents of Documents with cloud storage. This guide is for a different issue, but the relevant settings are the same:

I did attempt what you suggested, Unfortunately It did not work. I do appreciate the time you put into helping me. Thank You.
