And when i tried to create a new "teenage" account it just said Oops, looks like the request wasn't sent to this person
I think you're confusing the new Mac user account with your Origin account and they are two completely separate entities.
Hey all 🙂
I'm having the same issue since I got my new laptop yesterday. I have the 2020 M1 macbook pro 13" with the touch bar and 2 thunderbolt ports running Big Sur 11.4. I transferred all my data from my old laptop onto my new one and that seems to have broken my game or something, every time I try and launch the game I just get the error message "Sims 4 is already running [ed35e0ea:29f00e76:00000000:18a1dd51]". I've trawled through the solutions and nothing has worked except running the game in a new user profile but I would just prefer to have the one admin profile. My old laptop was also running the same OS I'm pretty sure.
I have:
- Moved my Sims 4 folder in documents to my desktop and deleted the Sims 4 folder but this doesn't generate a new folder.
- Uninstalled the game (multiple times), reset origin, deleted origin, restarted my computer, reinstalled origin, reinstalled the game (multiple times)
- Launched the game in my second user profile, copied the EA folder onto a USB and pasted into my admin profile
- I have Bitdefender but it never interfered with my game on my old laptop. I've checked the blocked apps and the documents and made sure origin and sims aren't blocked
- Changed the location of my game installs from my user profile to my laptops applications hard drive
- Tried launching the game from the application on my computer and origin
Any help would be heaps appreciated! I wanted to keep my old saves so I've got them saved on my desktop and on a USB
Cheers!
