where do i install the sims 4? is it under macintosh hd > user > username > applications > documents > electron arts? is it further deeper into that EA folder? like within sims 4 itself? no clear instructions anywhere
Hey maddyyyg19,
You shouldn't need to pick a subfolder inside Documents or Electronic Arts when downloading Sims 4 on Mac; the EA app should handle it for you. After the install, Sims 4 will be in Applications, with save files and mods in Macintosh HD > Users > username > Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4, unless iCloud syncing is on.
With iCloud syncing, your saves, mods, and other files would be in iCloud Drive > Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 instead. Though, with iCloud active, the game may take longer to load and face more technical difficulties, since some files stored on the cloud wouldn't be immediately accessible upon launch.
Are you seeing any specific prompts or looking for anything in particular?
