I updated The Sims 3 ambitions, and I'm still getting the error message.
Ok. Can you manually uninstall Ambitions then download it and try again? Please look in the Origin downloads folder I mentioned in my previous post and get rid of any installers that are already there before re-downloading Ambitions
- I have uninstalled and reinstalled these games 4 times now. I even swiped my computer clean and factory reset it. Nothing is working.
I know it's really frustrating but I also know that unless every single residual file is deleted (a lot are left behind by the uninstaller), then subsequent reinstalls of either the whole game or just an EP/SP are fruitless. The same can also be said for if a user wipes their Mac, reinstalls a fresh copy of the OS, then uses Time Machine/Migration Assistant to migrate all their files over, those residual files will just be copied over again.
Ambitions, weirdly, is also a problematic EP and can cause problems on the most stable Macs. Was there a .dmg in the Origins download folder?
Set up a new user account on your Mac and see if you can play in that account.
I have done a clean uninstall and reinstall and that has not worked. I tried to make up a guest account and do it there, that did not work. And when I swiped my computer clean and did a factory reset I did not load anything on to it except the sims. I have also contacted Origin 3 times. The 1st time they told me to update Origin and download the update, and then delete all of my caches'. That did not help. The 2nd time they told me to trouble shoot it, and they sent me the steps, I did that. it did not work. The 3rd time they gave me a new code and I used that, and it still did not work. And I do not see a download folder for Origin.
I just tried this and followed the steps in the link, but it's still not working. Do you have any other suggestions?
