My Sims 4 game on MacOS Sierra won't save

I recently downloaded Sims 4 from my Origin account onto my MacBook Air. I usually play Sims 4 on my HP laptop but I decided to put Sims 4 on my MacBook since I am currently traveling and didn't want to bring two computers. I started a game before my trip and had been saving it multiple times. I go to play it on my trip last night and there was no previous saved game. I ended up starting a new game last night and saved again. I go to play this morning and the same issue occurs: there is no saved game. All of my downloadable content packs that I own are all downloaded and working properly and I'm having no issue with gameplay whatsoever. The only issue is that my game won't save. I don't get an error code and it says the game has saved so I'm a bit confused and don't really want to play if I know I won't be able to save it. Please help.
