You need to change the iCloud settings. The link I provided explains it further and provides a link for instructions on how to change the settings.

The game creates the Sims 4 folder in the Electronic Arts folder when you first launch it so if you have just installed the game it won't yet have been created. Also, do you have iCloud Drive enabled? If so then your Documents folder may be moved to the the cloud.

  The Electronic Arts folder is created the first time you launch the game.

  The Electronic Arts folder is created when you first launch the game, which you can't do.
  
  Please can you provide more information about your Mac. Instructions on how to do so here - http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-Mac/READ-FIRST-Sims-4-Mac-Help-Guides-and-Troubleshooting/m-p/4612396/highlight/true#M162
