hi,
i have done what you suggested and a new mods folder hasnt generated. I am so confused as to why its not working
Thank you
@Amall_x Please move your entire Sims 4 user data folder out of Documents\Electronic Arts and onto your desktop. Launch the game to create a new folder, enable mods and custom content, quit, and see whether you have a Mods folder with a resource.cfg inside. If you do, you can move your mods to that folder, but please test to make sure they're working in game. If they are, you can move the rest of your content to the new folder as well. Saves are in the saves folder, and saved households and builds are in Tray.

What i have done is took off my icloud back up thing for my documents and i found the same folder but with the resource file but when i download mods it still doesnt work? ( the other folder vanished as i clicked on the icloud thing and i dragged out the EA folder - local)

@Amall_x When you disable iCloud syncing, what usually happens is that the local copies of the affected folders disappear, and they're only in the cloud. You can reenable iCloud and just prevent auto syncing, in which case you'll be able to move the Sims 4 folder out of iCloud and to your computer's version of Documents:

And then you can disable iCloud entirely if you want.
Once you have the correct Sims 4 folder, as in, the one that the game is reading, please add just one mod to it. Please also let me know whether your computer is running the Legacy Edition of Sims 4 or not. Some mods are not compatible with the LE, and others haven't been updated to work on the newest patch level of the standard version. If you're not sure whether your Mac needs the LE, please list its full specs, including operating system, as described here:
