Unable to select traits in CAS

I went to start a new game today (without mods, just after updating my game and installing a new pack) and the traits icons in Create A Sim had vanished. None of the usual fixes worked- I even started the game as if new and the problem persisted. 

Traits weren't selectable, rolling for random traits didn't make them reappear, unable to save sim.

I'm playing on a macbook. 

I'm playing on a macbook, I posted a picture above, and yes, it looks like it's the same issue! 

This is what I'm seeing when in create A sim

Could you please provide the following information

• Are you using mods/cc in your game ? Please remove them and test without them if you do.
  -  What platform are you playing on (PC, Mac, Playstation, XBox)
• Is this what you are seeing: Unable to select traits in CAS | EA Forums - 4949337 ? 

All sims of any age are missing the option to assign traits!

Found that if I used the randomize traits thing, it at least lets you finalize your sim.  You may have traits that you don't want, but you can finalize and save.  I ended up with squeamish, cheerful, socially uncomfortable (or whatever that one is) and  another one I can't remember right now.  But, at least I didn't lose the character.

Same problem and situation with me.  I don't play with any mods.  And I was just making a new sim and I can't pick any traits and cannot finalize my sim either.    Didn't have a problem until this new event.

Is there any known solutions by now? I have the same issue. And its not my mods, i checked them all, did everything and the problem is still there.
