This is my display settings but I’m not sure the problem comes from my settings but more in the origin or sims app or maybe something in the options there cause I only have that problem when I start playing to the sims 4.

    Checking your settings are the default ones means we can discount that as the issue. This is the Mac tech forum so we're checking the machine isn't causing the problem 🙂

    Are you using a secondary display hooked up to your Mac?

    Are you playing in fullscreen mode? Does the same thing happen in Windowed mode?

      I’m only using my Mac, no other display hooked up. Yes I’m playing in fullscreen mode but it doesn’t change anything if I play in windowed mode because the problem happens as soon as I open the game.

        It shouldn't happen in Windowed mode as the Mac doesn't flick to a secondary desktop screen. Could you take a screenshot of the game in a window and post it here?
