Re: The Sims 4 Mac Legacy Edition thread

@Pr1nc3ssam13 I have tried to uninstall the sims, and now I've installed it again. It asks med to downloade the legacy edition? But as far as I'm concerned, I don't need the Legacy Edition, because my Mac isn't that old. Right? Any suggestions?

    @cecilinder Are you sure mac is up to date? I didn't uninstall mine. I definitely don't understand why it would be asking you to download legacy if you dont need it.

    Sorry im not super technical. Can get online chat help about it may be able to help more.

    @Pr1nc3ssam13 My mac is up to date, however the update for a new version Mac OS is available in Appstore. I read some comments and in some cases it would make everything worse to install it. Because my computer might not have the capacity etc. to run a newer version. So I rather not do it.

    But thank you anyway. I'm not that technical either, but now my game works again! I had deleted everything that had a relation to sims on my computer. Then, as I mentioned, I installed it again. It then asked me to downloade legacy, I did (like I've tried so so so many times before), and then it worked!

    Hello. I bought the bundle with (among others) "Cottage Living". The other applications work but Cottage Living is not visible in play. None of the objects have been added.
    I tried searching for a solution, but it seems a lot of the solutions arent available anymore (legacy edition, metal).

    How do I solve this? Can I even play Cottage Living?

    I have an iMac with MacOS Sierra,version 10.12.6, from mid 2011.

    Best Regards, Jenny

    Your Mac can only run the Legacy version of the game as it does not support Metal however, the Legacy version is no longer available so you cannot run The Sims 4 on your Mac. More information in the opening post on page 1.

    No, you cannot play with the Cottage Living pack on your Mac because it does not support Metal. More info in the opening post on page 1.
