Re: Sims 4 Slow Download for Mac

@SamCardy

Can you try this - In Origin go to Preferences then the Advanced tab. Scroll down and enable Safe Mode downloading. Now try and download it.

    @Bluebellflora I just tried it and all seemed to be going well and it got the furthest it's ever accomplished (46%) when it seemed to stop downloading again.


    I'm just going to keep trying until it gets there I guess... :/

    Hopefully it will get there. Do you know who fast your internet speed is? 


    It got there! :D Thanks so much!

    My internet speed is approx. 3.20

    Is that good or bad?

    Lovely 🙂 Not sure what you mean by 3.20. It's normally done by speed. For example my speed at home is 50mbps (megabits per second), at work it is 250mbps per second, at my sister's it is 6mbps per second. If yours is 3.2mbps then that would account for the slow download speed. But you got there in the end!

    It's telling me on speedtest.net that I have a download speed of 3.70 mbps, but it's not unreasonably slow with anything else. I certainly don't notice that it's slow.

    Thanks for your help
