Sims won't publish books or play violins

Super frustrating. I've noticed two recent issues. 

#1 - My Sims won't publish any book. After they finish writing the book I can see in their inventory and they can do everything with the book but publish it. If I click on the mailbox the publish option won't come up. I've noticed this with a couple different. 

#2 - None of my Sims will play a violin. If I click on it they will walk over to the violin, but then glitch and then stand beside it. 

Can anyone help with this?

    I thought that that might have been an issue so I I closed down the game and it seemed that it needed an update. The game updated, but the issue didn't resolve, I also restarted my Mac, but still no solution. Sigh..

    @kaleneaj Are you getting any lastException files ? Did you test multiple SIims ?

    This sounds exactly like the issue what was patched.

    @kaleneaj Check your user folder in documents if there's any files called LastException (possibly with a number)

    Yes, I found a few LastException files and some LastUIException files as well. Should I delete them?

    Could you delete all the ones you have, then trigger the error and upload new ones you get ?

    You need to create a rar file to upload or c/p the content.

    @kaleneaj would you mind sharing what you did to solve it ? This could help the next user with the same issue

    Thanks.

    Happy to hear it's now working for you.
