Moving inventory items

Hi

im not sure if this is the right place to post so let me know where the best place to post will be. 

I have a Mack book pro (2018 version I think). Gameplay seems to be ok although the fan inside my MacBook is constantly going.

Since yesterday’s update I’m finding I can’t pick things up and put them into or out of my inventory. Before the update i could pick them up but now I find I have to click place in world or place in inventory. 

Can anyone help as to how I can pick things up to place them into inventory?

also how do I rotate items in build mode?? I’m finding i have to rotate the camera to the direction I want and then place it

I hope you can help

many thanks

    The pointing device should make no difference. Have you tried repairing your game? Did you try a new Sims 4 folder?

    No not yet. I’m new to having a MacBook so I’m not sure how to make a new folder? How do I repair the game??

    To repair - right click on the game in your Origin games library and select Repair Game.

    To force the game to create a new Sims 4 folder, go into your Documents folder then the Electronic Arts folder and drag the Sims 4 folder to the desktop.
