2 x SIM 4 games on macbook pro - they can view/delete others content/items!?!
Help...... I've bought two games for my daughters and they can see and delete each others stuff. How do I stop/restrict this.

It is a shared Macbook Pro.

What you could try yourself is to log into one of the accounts, load up the save and play around for a few minutes making some noticeable changes. Once done, exit out of the game, sign out of Origin and then log into the other account and launch the game to see if you are seeing the same world that you just were playing around in.

I am pretty certain they are logging in to the right games on their own accounts on Origin.. I will try this and let you know how I get on.
They have two seperate Origin log ins for their two seperate SIMs 4 games on the one Origin application on the MAC.
Should they have 2 x Origin Applications on the macbook? Can you even do this? Seems like overkill, and I'm not sure how I'd know who's is who's - I guess I can save the application in each of their names?
On speaking to my daughter she can see her sisters characters in her SIMs 4 save, even though my other duaghter has created these characters in her own game and sims 4 save, using her own Origin log in on her own SIMs game.

That's really helpful 🙂 It seems like they are using the same Sims 4 folder where the saves and other user data are stored. This is located in Users > [User] > Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sim 4. Do they share an iCloud account and have iCloud Drive enabled on both Mac user accounts? That would account for the same Sims 4 folder being used on both accounts.
