My new Sims 4 CC is not showing up (and i just restarted my game and deleted all my old CC). Also, my CC is enabled and my script Mods. I also use a Mac.

Same thing here, I'm sure I'm doing everything right, everything is enabled, I let the game generate a new mods folder, I dont even have any new cc that might be breaking the game, just what I had before and not a singe cc item is showing up in the game anymore.Can someone help? Any ideas what might be causing this? Thank you for any response <3

I am just checking also that you hsve these boxes checked in game options @Lapleesa http://i.imgur.com/aTgPajq.jpg?1

Exit the game and then add back the "options.ini" file and the "saves" , "screenshots" "tray" "custom music "folders from the desktop sims 4 folder to the new sims 4 folder, replacing the new generated file/ folders with the old file/folders that have the same name.Don't put back the old mods folder. Instead, place your cc/mods into the newly generated mods folder. Then test to see if that helps.

It will then tell you if your game is uptodate, and will update your game if it isn't.If the "keep my game updated" setting is ticked in Origin, it will update your game automatically. You can see if this setting is ticked, by pressing the origin label at the top of the screen in origin, click application settings from the drop down menu, then look at the settings under " applications " on the next sceeen that appears.

I tried deleting the old mods, I tried uninstalling sims 4 and reinstalling, I've tried putting the folder on the desktop but nothing will work. It's always the old cc's that shows up and not the new ones. Please helpHello @Kammie2303 I am sorry that you are having these issues. If you haven't already done this, try moving your mods folder to the desktop. Launch the game, and a new mods folder will be generated. Exit the game. Then put your mods/cc from the old mods folder into the newly generated mods folder and test to see if the issues remain. Make sure that there is only one resource.cfg file in the folder Make sure that you have extracted the package files out of the zipped folder or the rar file, if they come in zipped or rar formats. They can't be left as rar or zipped files.Try placing the package files directly into the mods folder without being in sub folders.Check that the files are for sims 4, and not for sims 2 or 3.Try downloading cc from a different site to where you downloaded your current new cc from, and see if that appears.

There isn't but I do have one more sims 4 folder in the documents and I have my ea folder on the desktop, should I try to delete the folder in the documents?

Having the two sims 4 folders in documents can be causing the issues. Keep the sims 4 folder there that contains your new mods. Move the othervsims 4 folder to the desktop. Then test to see if the new mods appear.

Hello @MEME_QUEEN206
Do you use One Drive? If you do it could be causing this issue, Try seeing if there is a mods folder in One Drive . The game may be using that mods folder instead. One Drive can cause issues, It would be best to unsync One Drive and Sims 4.

If you don’t use One Drive, try using the search bar on your computer , and search to see if there may be another mods folder on your computer that the game is using instead of the one directly in the sims 4 folder.
Some simmers have found that a mods folder had been incorrectly generated in their custom music folder. Check all the folders there as well.

Hello
I am sorry that you are having these issues. Try moving your whole mods folder to the desktop. Launch the game, and a new mods folder will be generated. Exit the game. Then put your mods/cc from the old mods folder into the newly generated mods folder in the Sims 4 folder and test to see if the issues remain.
