Great, just wanted to check it was local on your machine which it is. Move the Sims 4 folder out to your desktop, launch the game, play a household then save. Quit then see if you can load that new save.

@Bluebellflora okay, I did all of that, and when re-launching the game I was able to load the new save I just made. it was not reset like before.

Progress! Trash that save and then put your old ones into the new saves folder, see if it works (fingers crossed).

Hello! Anybody has an issue with the game freezing? It freezes when I'm in CAS, in build mode and live mode. There's no specific place and action when it happens.
I have the game fully updated, my Mac is on newest version of Catalina and I have no mods installed. Please, help, I was so happy to finally play the game but ☹️

Merged the Catalina thread into this main OS thread now the game is working.

Did you try a new Sims 4 folder with just your existing Saves and Tray folders in there?

I am also having this same issue. I'm running macOS Catalina 10.15 Beta and why I'm excited that I'm able to get the game running. Shortly after the game starts I get a rainbow loading wheel and my game freezes. I've always have had my graphics to high and never had a problem. I even tried to put my graphics on low and it still freezes. So I know it's not my computer.
