NEW download of Origin, SIMS 4 and Legacy - nothing works on Mac
I've tried to look at some threads on here but can't quite find the solution I'm after.
Ive never downloaded Origin or the SIMS or any game before - so I downloaded Origin onto the Mac today. Then bought The SIMS 4. Tried to play it and it came up with an error code saying Download Legacy edition. I did that.
Legacy edition doesn't show up in My Library but when looking at the SIMS 4 game, if I scroll down to additions I can buy, Legacy is at the bottom telling me I've bought it and the Play button is there. I click on play and I still get the same error code saying that I need to download Legacy??
I'm confused. Even though I've only just downloaded everything for the 1st time today I have updated both games and repaired them (having read various threads) - still the same message.
I've tried Right Clicking on the game, and going to Advanced Game options but I only get Game Language - with the only option being English US, and in the Command Line - it's blank.
It's taken all day to download Origin, The SIMS 4, Legacy Edition and then repair games (which seems like it's just an option to download again - it takes just as long).
These are the details of my MAC:
OS X El Capitan
iMac 21.5inch, mid 2011
2.5 GHz Intel Core i5
4GB 1333 MHz DDR3
AMD Radeon HD 6750Mb 521MB
(Whatever all that means - I am not very techy)
Can anyone help with what to do?
