Game closes itself at different times on Xbox series X no error code
Hello! I’ve tried all solutions from ea help and I’ve scoured this forums, nothing seems to fix this there isn’t a specific thing that makes the game freeze, it could be in the loading screen or 3 minutes into a game looking at the floor but then I could load it up again and drive a tank through a building or something massive and it won’t freeze xbox clean, latest updates, 900mb internet wired connection ea don’t have a fix for this apparently but it’s a global issue bought the game through CD KEYS but because the game key was activated and enabled me to download the game I can’t get a refund from them
Unable to start: The Sims 4 is already running - Mac only
If you're experiencing this error message it doesn't mean your game is already running, the actual message itself is incorrect. It means The Sims 4 cannot access the Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 folder to load your user data when you attempt to launch the game. This is essentially a permissions issue which can be resolved based on your setup: - If you have just installed or reinstalled the game - If you have iCloud Drive enabled and it is syncing your Desktop & Documents folders - If you have recently updated your Mac or the game - If you have moved your Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 folder to an external drive and created a symlink in your Documents folder ______________________________________________________________ If you have just installed or reinstalled the game: You would have been prompted to allow The Sims 4 permission to access the Documents folder, this is security built into macOS. This is so it can access the Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 folder in your Documents folder, if one already exists, or create a new one if it doesn't exist. If you clicked Don't Allow when prompted the game cannot read and write to the Documents folder, resulting in the error message. Fix - Open System Settings > Privacy & Security > Files and Folders (you will need to use an Mac Administrator account to access this) and enable access to the Documents folder by clicking the toggle on: If you do not see this option open System Settings > Privacy & Security > Full Disk Access (you will need to use a Mac Administrator account to access this). Click the + in the bottom left corner, below the list of apps. A Finder window will open to the Applications folder. Navigate to where your game is installed, by default this is Applications > EA Games, click on it and then click Open. It will now be added to the Full Disk Access list. Make sure it is toggled on. Whilst giving the game Full Disk Access isn't ideal, and shouldn't be necessary, it is a quick and easy solution to fixing the error message and the game is signed and notarised by Apple. ______________________________________________________________ If you have iCloud Drive enabled and it is syncing your Desktop & Documents folders: This is a really common cause of this error message and is as a result of your Mac storage being full resulting in iCloud pushing the entire Documents folder to the cloud. The game cannot see the Documents folder and its contents because it is not local on your machine, therefore it cannot access the Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 folder to load user data at launch. Fix - Open System Settings > Apple Account > iCloud > Drive and disable the Desktop & Documents folders syncing. Be aware of the effect this will have if you use multiple Apple devices to access these folders: ______________________________________________________________ If you have recently updated your Mac or the game: Sometimes permissions can go awry after updating the OS or you have been prompted to change settings after updating and inadvertently clicked the wrong thing. Fix - check all of the applicable settings in the instructions above ______________________________________________________________ If you have moved your Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 folder to an external drive and created a symlink in your Documents folder: There can be multiple reasons for the error message when a symlink has been set up but they are all caused by the game not being able to access the Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 folder: your external drive is not plugged in and properly mounted. Check the drive is plugged in and showing in Finder/on your Desktop. your symlink is broken. This can be checked by looking at the symlinked folder in your Documents folder. If the icon is a white file and not a folder it is broken. Trash it and recreate the symlink in Terminal. If you have further issues refer to the dedicated symlink thread opening post. the game does not have access to Removable Volumes (external drives) in System Settings > Privacy & Security > Files and Folders. You would have been prompted to give permission when launching the game for the first time after successfully creating the symlink and maybe denied it. Give the game access: you have iCloud Drive syncing your Desktop & Documents folders to the cloud which does not work well with the symlink. Disable it (see above for further instruction). your external drive has not been ejected properly multiple times resulting in the OS changing the mount point. Check Disk Utility and rectify, see the dedicated symlink thread opening post for further instruction. ______________________________________________________________ If you're still stuck a really quick and easy way to resolve this is to create a new Administrator account on your Mac and play the game in that account. When you first launch the game in that account you will be prompted to give all the necessary permissions for the game to access the Documents folder - make sure you allow it 😊
Security Violation Error (DiscSoftLTD / Daemon Tools)
Hello EA Support Team, I recently purchased Battlefield 6 – Phantom Edition, which is a premium version of the game, and after downloading and installing it successfully, I am unable to launch the game at all. Upon launch, I consistently receive the following error message: Security Violation “This software cannot be used at the same time as the game. Please make sure it’s not running, or restart your PC. (84): DiscSoftLTD (Daemon Tools)” Important notes: • Daemon Tools is not running in the background. • I have restarted my PC multiple times. • My PC hardware fully meets (and exceeds) the game’s system requirements. • The issue occurs immediately on launch and prevents any access to the game. Since this is a paid Phantom Edition, I expect full functionality, and at the moment the product is completely unusable. I would appreciate your assistance in: • Verifying whether this is a known issue with the anti-cheat / security system • Providing clear steps to resolve it • Or offering an alternative solution if this software conflict is unavoidable Please let me know if you require any additional logs or system information from my side. Thank you for your time and support. I look forward to your prompt response. Kind regards, Forsan Hizran XSilverEagleXUnable to go to plots
When i start a new game (or load), i can get no further but to make a sim and chose a plot. But when it loads the plot it's just stuck there on the loading screen. I've tried waiting, but it can stand there for hours. I've tried deleting and installing the game again, but i doesn't work.

I just redownloaded the game for the first time since launch and am now being hit with "EA Javelin Anticheat encountered an error. Please restart your PC.: C:\Program Files\EA\AC\EAAntiCheat.GameService.exe(7)(1)"" - I've restarted my pc many times - I've done manual reinstalls of Javelin - Redownloaded BF6 twice The small splash screen that says its starting Javelin is the farthest I get. I haven't been able to get farther then thatAdventure Awaits appears to be unavailable
I went to boot my game today to find that adventure awaits isn't working. When I try to load my save it says "Requires Adventure Awaits". When I click view packs its says that "This pack is unavailable to purchase" (even though I already have it). It also says that restart is required but I'm not sure how to do it and if it will fix my dilemma. Please help!
