    Taking screenshots in game is done by pressing C.

    Taking screenshots in macOS is CMD, Shift and 3 or 4 or 5.

    Have you changed the default settings in System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts > Screenshots?

How do I get to system preferences? Sorry my first time owning a Mac and just downloaded Sims4.

      It definitely isn't the preferences on Mac. Mac screenshot shortcut is SHIFT - COMMAND - 3

      This a a problem with something in the game. I am also having a problem with this.

      And there seems to be no way to change any preferences in the game itself for screenshots or cheat screens or otherwise.

      Has anyone found a work around or a solution so far?

        What are you having a problem with? If you press C to take a screenshot in-game does it not work?
