@jjoyal92 I've moved your post to the Sims 3 Mac section.
Please start by doing a clean uninstall of everything Sims 3-related; the normal uninstall process leaves behind hidden files that can prevent the game from launching later.

Install the base game only, no packs yet, and run the Super Patch (digital download version) to manually patch the game to 1.67. The launcher doesn't always do a thorough job of patching on its own.

Try launching the game at this point, and let me know whether you get an unknown error. The server error is different and can be fixed or ignored, depending on which packs, if any, you plan to install. Please list those packs, so I can write out instructions for applying workarounds to the ones that need extra help to get installed properly.
