MAC; Game Refuses to Launch and folders are empty
I haven't played the Sims since April (life got a little busy). I finally had time to sit and play a game, but when I got on my computer, the EA app was uninstalled. I reinstalled it and logged in, and had to download my game again (all the folders were gone from my computer since the game was uninstalled, so I couldn't remove the mods folder before downloading the game, and it downloaded the updated version). Once the game was downloaded, everything looked different. Instead of the Electronic Arts folder I was used to, it says EA Games and has the Sims game icon and a folder full of pack information inside. There is no cache, mods, saves, or anything. When I try to launch the game, the icon bounces a couple of times before disappearing, and the EA app opens again. So far I have cleared the EA cache, repaired the game through the EA app, cleared up space in my ICloud and made sure downloads/applications weren't being auto-moved to the cloud, uninstalled the game and reinstalled it again, moved the sims folder to my desktop and tried to run the game again to made it populate a new folder, and started from scratch again by removing the EA app and the game and reinstalling both again. No matter what I do, the game won't launch, and the folder stays the same. Is this a new thing I missed out on while I wasn't playing the game? I had my wife look at it too (she works in a video game tech-heavy field), and she couldn't figure it out either. Please help, this game is the closest thing to therapy I can afford.
