    Sims should now actually be able to finish writing songs. Perhaps those of us with closets full of unfinished projects should take notes.

    Fixed in Patch 1.103.250/1.84

I also had the same issue and tried doing it on another sim. I had mods installed but removed them for testing. It did work on the other Sim. I think it may have something to do with the fact my one sim has the rewards trait for Creative Genius childhood aspiration that comes with Growing Together, which is supposed to speed up the time it takes to write songs, make paintings, etc. Writing songs worked on all my sims except the one with that trait, but I could be wrong. I will also be sending in my save file. 🙂

UPDATE: I tested my idea by removing the trait. I used the UI cheats mod for those wondering, but I am sure there is probably a cheat code to accomplish this for those looking to fix the issue. And it worked! My sim that could not previously complete writing songs was able to finish after removing the reward trait for the Creative Genius aspiration.

    The song writing never ends. The progress, green, bar goes to 100%/full but she keeps playing and never stops. It also happens when I try with sheet music. I can complete the action with sims downloaded from Gallery but not with my own sim. I have reset both the sim and the items. I have made sure that I have no instruments in my inventory. I have changed household and back again. Restarted the game etc. Nothing works. From what I can see online I am not the only person with this bug and it has been a reacurring issue for years with no fix.

    This is what I did after reading your post and it worked. Sad that the trait is virtually unusable though.

      Hello.

      We no longer need saves for this issue. The team will investigate.

      Thank you.
