Mods appear in game but not in folder

I just came back to play the sims 4 after not playing for a few months, everything works and all my cc is in the game but it doesn't show up in the mods folder on my Mac, does anyone have any ideas of how to fix this? I tried repairing the game in origin but that didn't do anything. Any help is much appreciated!!!

  • @Rachie-Pie14  Please make sure you're looking at the correct Mods folder, as in, the one the game is reading.  It sounds like you might be looking inside iCloud's Documents folder rather than the one stored on your computer.  You can check the file path of any file or folder by right-clicking and selecting Get Info; the file path is listed under Where.

    Here's how to find the file path of the folder Sims 4 is reading:

    Thank you, that was really helpful, it turns out all my mods are in the folder on the cloud!
