Moving Sims 4 game to an External Drive

Hi everyone,

I really like playing the Sims and I'm not that tech savvy, please help.

I want to move my origin application and my Sims 4 game and files to an external drive and I've been told that all I would have to do is open the Origin application and move the game but I do not have the option to do so. I've tried going to Origin's preference and then going to "Installs and Saves". I  have tried to change the location of the game library but my external hard drive doesn't show up. I can't choose another location beyond my user profile's desktop.

I have uninstalled my Sims 4 game and restarted my computer and I still don't see the option to move game. 

I am using a 2017 Macbook Air by the way. 

Thanks in advance!
