[INFO REQUEST] Sims 4 Cats and Dogs always shows 'Download' in Origin

If the Cats & Dogs EP is always giving you the option to Download in Origin, even though you have downloaded it, please provide more details in this thread. What macOS version are you running? ...

Thanks. When it was working can you remember if it still said download in Origin or did it show as installed?

Showed as installed when working.  After the hour or so when I went back in to play the game the cats & dog expansion was not showing in my library.  After I did the deletion of Origin and reinstalled thru the instructions given here the cats & dog expansion showed up.   But still Origin will not open the Sims 4 to play. No error message is given (which is strange) because as a rule I would get an error message.  Installed S4S, did all the required fixes for broken cc etc and still not loading the game.  I'm at a loss as to what could possible be wrong with the game.

    Hi everyone,

    First of all, thank you for sharing with us the details about the problem you were having. Could you please check if Origin is still giving you the option to 'Download'?

    If so, please, try to uninstall and install the game again, and let us know if that helps.

    Thank you,

    -Mai

        @Bluebellflora How did you fix it? By resetting origin?

      Mine doesn't say download anymore, but I'm still experiencing the same pets problems. SUCCES!

      However, I'm still having the same problems. When I want to adopt a pet, I press adopt, I accept, I choose a name, it take $200 and then nothing happens. I can interact with the pet as if it was my own, but it's not in my household and the adoption lady doesn't leave. I've tried going into CAS where it then appears in my household and stays when I go back, but again the adoption lady doesn't leave. I've clicked to end the evaluation and she takes the pet with her. I have forced a pet in my household by creating one or clicked "at to household" with testingcheats on, but then i can't train the dog. I've tried befriending a stray, but I never get the choice to ask it to move in. I have only adopted a pet succesfully ONCE, after i forced one in.
      I don't know if there is some special thing you have to do, that I'm just not getting, but it's very frustrating.

      oh, and when i aged up my babies, my sim still had to introduce themselves to them again
