All Lots/Households/Rooms saved in Library Gone

Luckily everything still has a date modified timestamp since moving the file doesn't count as modifying it. I'll try taking everything off iCloud Drive later when I can find my external hard drive, I'm just confused why it would suddenly not allow me to access my Lots/Households/Rooms now since as far as I know the files in the Tray have always been in iCloud Drive because everything on my computer tries to automatically upload to iCloud Drive even if I don't want it to...

If you read the link it explains all the different iCloud options and why the game doesn’t like iCloud.

    I was able to move all of my EA files onto my computers local drive, I double checked to make sure the path was correct, but the Lots/Households/Rooms that I created before 11/20/23 are still not appearing. I have 1 Room and 3 Lots that I have saved since this date that show up in My Library, but nothing else is showing up. I attached some pictures for reference.

    You need to figure out why they are not showing or accept that maybe when you were moving files around you may have missed a full batch of files for one Lot/Household/Room which seem like the most logical reason for the items now not showing. It's never recommended to fiddle around with Tray files like this and you wouldn't be the first user to have done so and now missing items. You have the correct file path to the Sims 4 folder and understand the process. The only other possibility is you have the Tray files for the missing lots saved somewhere else on your Mac and need to move them into the current Tray folder.
