    You fix it by logging in to the account you bought the game on (try using the email used instead of your username) then you will find it in the game library in origin.

  • You shouldn't need to re-enter your game code again, as you have already registered your game through Origin and should be ready to download and install.

    You will need to make sure you are using the same Origin account you either bought the game with or registered it to.

    However, if the game is not showing up in the Games Library try the following things:

    - Restart Origin
    - Log out and back in, using using the email address and username you used to purchase or register the game with.
    - Make sure it's not under Hidden Games
    - Restart your router/modem
    - Uninstall/reinstall Origin
