Hello,
I went through the process of following BlueBellFlora instructions on how to create an symlink in order to store my games files on a USB since I was running out of space on my MacBook Air. All the steps went perfectly but once I opened Sims I wasn't able to load any of my saved games, I was forced to start over. Please help!
Also, when I try to reverse the link through terminal I get this message
'
~ % mv ~/Documents/Electronic\ Arts ~/Documents/Electronic\ Arts_bkp
mv: rename /Users/janellejack/Documents/Electronic Arts to /Users/janellejack/Documents/Electronic Arts_bkp: No such file or directory
'
I have been having issues with this and I’ve been trying to resolve it all day with no success. I completed step 1 and moved my EA folder to my Hard drive, but step 2 keeps giving me trouble. My hard drive is called “Gaming Hard” and this is what I typed to create the symlink:
In -s /Volumes/Gaming\ Hard/Electronic\ Arts ~/Documents/
What am I doing wrong??? I keep getting an error in terminal saying not found and nothing happens.

Is that the letter I or the letter L at the beginning? If you copied and pasted the command from my instructions it should be an L. It looks like an I to me.
its an “i” , I changed it to an “L” and it says no such file or directory in terminal.
can you please copy and paste the command you’re entering here again.
Please also open Terminal and copy and paste the following command then hit Enter/Return:
find / -type d -name "*The Sims 4*" 2>/dev/null
After a little while it will return the results of the search. Please copy and paste the results in a post here.
