no load game button sims 4

When i opened my game, i wanted to load one of my sims 4 households. But there was no load game button or a new game button. All there was was a option to see all of the sims 4 games i have, a option to open the gallery, notifications, and menu. I went to see if my saved games were deleted by going to the sims 4 folder and all of my saved games were still there but i cant play any of them because im not getting the option to load any of my games. What's going on???

    1. Close the game
    2. Try moving your saves folder to the desktop, then start a new start the game to create a new saves folder.
    3. Close the game
    4. Put one of the save games from your folder back (not the slot_00000001.save, that's the autosave)
    5. Check if it now shows up again

    How many saves do you have in your saves folder ? Do you have any with ver0-ver4 as extension ? 

    Since you're on a mac, you might be better off asking in the mac forum but at this point, I don't think it makes a difference.

    This hasn't worked for me. I tried the solution you suggested. I have the saved files but whatever I do they won't open and there is no Load Game option when opening Sims 4.

    My son has spent 12 hours of gameplay and now can't open his saved game, he is mortified. If the load game option is there on Xbox, why not on my Mac?

    Begs the question why I bothered saving the game at all.
