When starting a game it says I don't own any packs

This started a month ago now, I went to play my game and when I clicked my save file it said I don't own any packs or expansions. I cleared EA cache, I cleared my cache for the game and I repaired the game 3 times. It still said I don't own any packs in game. It shows I own everything in the app though. I started a new game, same thing. I took out all of my mods, same thing. I even deleted 1 expansion pack and reinstalled it and same thing. I would love to play again but my last resort is to delete everything and download the whole thing but it takes a day to do that because of my internet. Please tell me there is a fix for this.

  • having the SAME issue!! it started with not showing any kits, today it says I don't have any packs

  • LeonSkylerDarko  Does the EA App say you don't own your packs, under Sims 4 > Manage > Manage add-ons?  Or are your packs listed there but don't load in-game?  These are two completely different issues.

    They are all there in the EA add-ons but when i go to play it only has the basegame worlds and says in my saves that i do not own any packs. I tried the EA app again last night and it updated and after updating the game had all the packs but when i tried it again an hour later I am now back to it saying I don't own any packs

    that's what happened to me too a while ago. now, even my saved games are gone i don't know how 

  • q0982p6c9wbt  I understand that.  What I'm saying is, this is a Known Issue with known causes and a known fix, all of which is covered in the first post and accepted solution of the thread I linked.  So please read those posts and follow the directions.

    If the EA App now says you don't own any packs, that's a separate issue.  But I can't tell from your description whether you're saying the App now thinks you don't own the packs, or you're still referring to the game not loading your packs.

    h34dintheclouds  Please continue in your other thread for the issue of your missing packs.  The saves disappearing is a separate issue covered here:
