Sims 4 saves not loading in game (mac)
ever since I got my new mac none of my sims 4 saved games are able to be loaded. I have tried validating the game files, I disabled cloud sharing in the origin settings, I noticed my EA documents folder was in the cloud so I disabled cloud sync and moved my EA folder back into the system storage, I looked through my save folder for the sims and made sure all files follow the slot_8bitnumber.save X(.verY) format and I made sure that the game recognizes the sims 4 folders in documents by checking the settings in-game for capture. To my knowledge, I have done everything but throw my computer in the bin and light it on fire but I still cannot load a previously saved game in the sims. it's worth noting that when I get info on some of the files it does say that it was created at the time that I started my new save just yesterday so I honestly have no clue why it's having a problem recognizing save files. If anyone has an idea on how to fix this issue your help is greatly appreciated. I have no idea how to mac so I'm probably just forgetting something blatantly easy.
update: I found out how to do a terminal search for the sims 4 and here are the results
/Users/me:P/Applications/The Sims 4 Packs
/Users/me:P/Applications/The Sims 4.app
/Users/me:P/Applications/The Sims 4.app/Contents/Resources/The Sims 4.app
/Users/me:P/Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4
me:P@my:-) -MacBook-Air ~ %
I'm fairly certain this means the only sims 4 documents folder is in /Users/me:P/Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4.
Thank you for your help, I stumbled on the solution. I don't know why but I decided to drag the sims 4 folder out from users\documents\EA\ and started the game. The game remade the sims 4 folder in that location, then I took all the saved files from the old folder and put them in the new saves folder and it seems to work fine now.
