    Hi @Anma998 to live drag anything from your inventory I think it's the square button on PS. I'm on Xbox Series X and it's the X button which is on the left hand side of the grid of buttons, I've just looked around for my PS3 but it's vanished so I can't check. Testing the buttons will tell you though. You just hold and drag to a wall or shelf for photos and can then select frame colour by clicking the photo. You can do the same for all collectables too and place them on shelves or place paintings on walls.

Yes it was the square button, it worked with one sim but with another sim that has 99+20 photos the photo get stuck, like it sometimes do with other stuff one picks up in live mode, it won't release, had to turn off the game. Then I tried again and now I got an error code and the game turned itself off (CE 34878-0) So theoretical right answer but it seems like a bug or something happens. Weird it didn't happen with the other sim, she only had 30 pictures though

    @Anma998 the error code can be linked to taking photos. I'm on Xbox so my solution and effects may be completely different. For me, I actually can't take photos anymore at all or I get an error code that affects my saves (it started after adding Moschino/photographer career and reaching a large number of inventory photos) and the same problem happens when I download from the gallery.

    Here's the technical issues thread for consoles with troubleshooting tips:

    For me the first step was to reset my console and "keep my apps and games" so as not to lose anything. There should be an equivalent command in your PS settings but take a look at the above troubleshooting steps for the best info for your console.

    Good luck!
