Moving Around the Screen

I am suddenly having trouble moving around the screen in Live Mode.  It doesn't seem to matter whether my Sim is at Home or out in the World, I cannot "drag" the screen in any direction.  I also cannot rotate the screen, which I used to be able to do.  What I CAN do is hold down the right mouse button and move the mouse left, right, up, or down, which "sort of" gets me near where I want to be.  This problem showed up after I installed City Living.  It's becoming very frustrating!

  • I am truly excited now!!!  I think I found the solution to my own problem.  I went up to the upper right corner of my screen and clicked the Options Menu (the three dots...).  Next, I clicked on Game Camera.  Somehow, it had gotten The Sims 3 Camera box checked.  I UNCHECKED that box and CHECKED the Edge Scrolling box.  Viola!  Back to the way I am accustomed to playing my game!  I hope this helps someone else, too.  🙂
