So at home, my teen could freely store and remove stuff from her keepsake box. So I packed it all full of goodies so they wouldn't clutter my inventory and took off to University. I put my keepsake box on a table in my room.. and none of the stuff is retrievable. (except her two old school homework books.)
What's the point of a keepsake box if you can't access the stuff that is in it if you move away from your home?
Oh, you can access fruits and vegetables.. but only to "Place in World" (individual items, not stacks) and then once it's placed, you can eat it.. but not put it in your inventory.

Fairly easily resolved if you realize it fast enough.. just recover a save from before you moved, take everything out of the box and put in your inventory, move, put everything back in the box. Kind of a hassle but whatever.- TheSimsDirect3 years ago

Hello.
Would someone be willing to share affected (unmodded) save file(s) for the ICYA Chest and keepsake box?If so, instructions are here:

Yes, I even got the Sticker Box to lock contents for bonus points.
This is a brand new save so hopefully it'll give you a good idea of what's going on.
The only things that happened in this save:
Elsa and Dave moved in
I loaded up our boxes with a bunch of random items.
I put them in Dave/Elsa's inventory.
I took them out of Dave/Elsa's inventory.
I labeled the boxes (I don't think this step matters)
I put all the boxes in Dave's inventory.
Dave moves out.
Dave moves in to a new lot.
Dave now has three boxes filled with items he can't remove.
Moving back to his old lot will not fix it. Nor will Elsa joining him.
For those encountering the issue, I have fixed it before. Move your sim off the lot, but leave the boxes behind (ie, Sell Furniture). Then move back in choosing the Furnished option. Your items will now be usable again. Though, in my experience I did lose all my photographs.
