Why would you move AND rename the folder? That's completely unnecessary. Whatever you have done is not correct unless you have iCloud Drive Desktop & Documents setup which can interfere with the Sims 4 folder due to syncing.
Please post a screenshot showing your Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 folder contents, with the path bar clearly visible at the bottom of the Finder window. Here's an Apple guide on showing the path bar - https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/mac-help/mchlp1774/

A full screenshot with the path bar showing please! All that shows me is you have an Electronic Arts folder, it doesn't show me the exact location of that Electronic Arts folder. If you don't know how to do this I provided a link in my previous post that has instructions.- 1 year ago
Here it is
I do have an older mac and software so it may look a tiny bit off
Beyond that, "game stuff" is on my desktop.
and the backup sims 4 folder I made, is on the desktop outside of the folders.

I'm sorry but you still don't have the path bar enabled:
My screenshot shows the exact file path your game uses to read your user data. Any variation and the game does not know it exists. That Electronic Arts folder you have in "game stuff" is not loading in the game so whatever changes you make to this folder is irrelevant and has no bearing on your game.
