The same thing happened to me, and this really helped!

1) Go into your main boot drive and go into the Users folder - find the folder matching your account name and go in.
2) Once inside go into: Electronic Arts / The Sims 3 / DDCache
3) Delete missingdeps.idx
Then finally, cross your fingers, and try running the launcher after this. Good luck!
I tried what you suggested smileyface33366 and it didn't work. Any other ideas?
It worked fine until I downloaded the date night content...I don't know how to fix it. Anybody have any ideas?
