sims 3 says there is no disc inserted

hey, my sims 3 is not working at all. since my mac was completely resetted and updated to OS X10.11.3, my sims 3 doesn't work anymore. it feels like i have already tried everything, but it still doesn't work. there is always an error message saying that there us no disc inserted even though there is!

i will add a picture of the error message but since its german i will translate it: No disc found. Please insert the disc of Sims3 Generations to continue.

I own Generations, Late night and the base game of course.

    Hey, i've already tried that, and it didn't work. origin is not a solution for me. is there another way to fix this? would installing the game to another computer might help?

    It does work but you MUST uninstall every single trace of the EP, including all the hidden residual files, before downloading and installing it via Origin. You must also apply the 1.67 patch for the digital download manually.

    El Capitan is the reason you are getting the error, it is a Permissions issue. If your other computer is running a previous version of OS X or Windows then you shouldn't get the error 🙂

    I actually figured it out myself. Currently i only have my base game installed, hopefully it'll still work when i install my eps. Now another question: my sims cant interact with eachother/i cant click on any of them. When i click on them it says: nraas script error. Is there anyway to fix this? Its not the jam jar lol, i already resetted the town with nraas.
