@Looneybin1978 When you sign into ea.com with your Steam login, do you get into the same Origin account you're using now? The point is not to sign in, the point is to sign in AND confirm that the EA login details are correct. Please let me know either way, and double-check that you're signed into Origin using the same email address you see on ea.com when signing in with your account.
If that's not the problem, please let me know what antivirus you use, if any, and whether Origin works properly when you sign into it, specifically whether your game library loads and whether Sims 4 is listed there.
