Backyard stuff won't download.

please give assistance. 

When i click on backyard stuff to download it the screen for that pops up but when I click on the buy button it just goes back to the home screen of the app. And i have also tried going to steam and getting it from there but that does not work either.

    @DerpDog114 if it's doing the useless "Download Error" for me I had that with For Rent, but reinstalling EA App itself to off of the main computer drive, which usually is  C:\ worked for me and suddenly my whole Sims 4 was fine and For Rent was actually already installed even with it claiming not to be when EA App was on C:\

  • It does not give any messages or anything it just closes the screen 

  • @DerpDog114  What country are you in, and do you have an underage account?  (Don't tell me how old you are; just yes or no will be fine.)  Can you redeem the pack here?

    If it works, you should see Backyard Stuff in your EA App game library, under Sims 4 > Manage > Manage add-ons.  Let me know whether it appears, and if so, whether you can download it from there.

    I wouldn't recommend redeeming the pack in Steam because that would mean you'd need to uninstall the EA App version of Sims 4 and reinstall the game through Steam.

    @mrsnicell  If you'd like help with your issue, please create your own thread describing the problem.  Please also run a dxdiag and attach it to your post.
