Why is sims 4 not opening?
I have had sims 4 for over a year now with no problems. Since around boxing day (of 2017) I am no longer able to open the game. I can open Origin and go to Sims 4, but when I click play the game says...
Hello,
So from what I can see (I'm not very good with computers)..
I have a macbook pro version 10.11, the processor is Intel Core i5, the graphics are Intel Iris Graphics 6100, on my memory I have 8GB, and on my hard drive I have 40 GB free...
Do these meet the requirements you listed above?
Hi @ejane223
All systems are different and I don't know that much about a macbook... but check: the following It's often tied to Graphics Display as well.
To open System Information directly, hold down the Option key and choose Apple menu () > System Information. You can also use Spotlight to find System Information, or open it from the Utilities folder of your Applications folder.
Select items in the sidebar to see information about each item. For example, the Hardware section shows your Mac serial number, the Memory section shows how much RAM is installed in each internal memory slot, and the Software section shows which startup disk (boot volume) your Mac is using. You can use the Network section and the Network Utility to learn more about your network.
To have System Information read your serial number aloud, choose File > Speak Serial Number.
To save a copy of your system report, choose File > Save.
To learn more about System Information, choose Help > System Information Help.
You can see more by following the above steps.. and/or copy and pasting exactly what specifications your system has here.
Thank you,
I have checked everything, and from what I can see my macbook should all meet the requirements you had listed previously... I don't know why it isn't working... Do you have any more suggestions as to what I can try?
again thank you for all your help!!
"If you’d like to try an automatic scan of your computer to see if it can run The Sims 4, visit the System Requirements Lab site and run their Can You RUN it tool for The Sims 4. <<< let me know how you go with that tool.
You also didn't mention what your Graphics Card (mem) was >
I tired to run it, but my computer says "no available applications can run it" (in regards to the test)..
