can't update my sims 4 game

I have tried all the recommended fix and none works. It just seems to get stuck at 7% update. Now I'm downloading the app  and it's not moving . Now 2 days

@CandiKane94 and @queemo4  Try going offline in the EA App and back online.  The option is in the dropdown menu in the upper-left corner of the App window.

If that doesn't help, try forcing the App to update.  Go here:

C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\EA Desktop\EA Desktop

and launch the EAUpdater.exe.

I've got the same issue - did you ever resolve this?

@EMGlover  What happens when you try to update or repair?  If you get an error message, please post a screenshot.

Having similar issues

Game is asking for an update, however this was completed a few days ago. Since bought expansion packs all dowloaded fine. 

Gone to play today and now asking for an update again and my packs bought over the weekend are no longer linked, advising I needs sims4 base game to play.

Deleted and re-installed EA

Cleared cache 

And currently in the process of repairing each expansion individually

Any help will be greatly appreciated

@7f1d9c1504cfc3e1  Where did you buy the packs: directly from EA, from Steam or Epic, or from a third-party vendor that provided codes for you to register?

Additionally, are you sure you're in the correct account?  The message about needing the base game should only appear if you've signed into an account that doesn't already own it, which might be the case for an alternate account.  Please double-check this account's purchase history for your previous purchases, not just the most recent ones, to see whether this is in fact the account you'd been using up until now.
