The sims3 launcher cannot connect to origin
When I go on the Sims 3 launcher it keeps saying cannot connect to origin I have the correct sims 3 update and I think I have the newest update for origin.

Try reinstalling Origin and make sure you don't have the EA Download Manager still on your Computer.
Follow these steps to remove any left over registry entries after uninstalling Origin: https://help.ea.com/article/manually-uninstalling-origin
Also make sure Java, Flash Player and WIndows are up-to-date

This one also won't work. ☹️
You can bypass the Origin app and use the manual update found http://games4theworld.bestgoo.com/t1870-can-t-update-the-sims-3-to-v142-fix-manual-patch,then install Sunlit Tides or any other expansion you want to install.
This will fix the issue.
This is the only solution that has helped me with this problem. I have had the issue with the launcher since Origin and Ea first teamed up. I have done everything and spoke to suppose tech support and so on. Thanks so much for posting this aquarius007 u are a godsend.
I still can't connect to orgin from my launcher but I dont need to as I can access my games and download content now, If any one hasn't tryed it yet I recomend using aquarius007 salution it works, u can download updates and still play the game w/out dealing with origin.
if you use the download found at games4theworld and by origin will this make you unable to play your games through your origin account.
