Sims 3 update from 1.0.631 download error?
Okay I just installed The Sims 3 on my late 2011 MacBook Pro and I'm trying to install the ambitions and generations expansion pack. Only problem is I have an update and can't install the other games...

Hi meggagirl1993,
There are some issues that EA are aware of where the Sims 3 Launcher software causes some issues with certain Anti-Virus software.
Please refer to the following article and see if the information contained is of any use to you: https://help.ea.com/article/the-sims-3-launcher-will-not-open-or-load-after-update-patch
Thanks!
But I dont have a virus protector on my MacBook I JUST got it and have only downloaded games to it. Nothing in virus protection.
Hi again meggagirl1993,
Have you tried launching the Sims 3 game directly from the folder instead? If that does not work, then it would seem another full re-installation is likely going to be needed.
To directly launch please follow these steps:1) Go to My Computer.
2) Look for Sims 3 folder and open it.
3) Open the "Game" folder.
4) Then open the "Bin" folder.
5) Launch the application "TS3.exe".
This should directly launch your Sims 3 game without need for the launcher.
Thanks!
I cant find the ts3.exe file I cant find. I dont know how to launch it without the game launcher on my mac. I've uninstalled and reinstalled it multiple times.
