Hey fellow Simmers!
I have recently been having trouble with the design tool. Specifically the "misc" folder.
Whenever i try to create a custom design nothing shows up, and i cant exit the design screen, forcing me to close the game entirely.
I am not a computer wiz, you will have to speak with me as a newbie.
Hopefully it's a simple fix.
Help!!!
thanks in advance
I just bought Sims 3 and can't find the product code to open the game
I am trying to install Dragon Valley and Monte Vista expansion packs for my Sims 3 game. It says that the expansion packs are installed, but I didn't get the 16 digit code screen so I know that they weren't. What can I do?
I've been trying to install Sims 3 Seasons limited edition disk and it goes well until some point within the installation wizard where it says: Error: Data error (cyclic redundancy check).
It won't download the one FullBuild_p.16.package. Is anyone else having this problem??? Help!! I'm installing on an HP notebook laptop. Every other sim expansion pack I've downloaded has worked!!!
My sims 3 game will not load after I click play on the launcher. All I get is a black screen with my mouse twirling around in the middle as if it's loading. And I always have to log off of my PC to close the loading screen because it would take ages! AND my expansions packs are completely gone. I love TS3, but lately- Origin has been messing up and I'm tired of trying new things everyday in order to play just to have it mess up the next day. HELP?!
Someone help please! Monte Vista code has been successfully redeemed through Origin, but I can't find it on my purchase history on the Sims 3 website. Also, the Sims 3 website says the code has already been used. I can't download the game through selecting worlds. I see no where to download it from Origin, someone please help!
I just got the Sims 3 today. I installed it and started creating my sims but to a certain point, it would close out and say there was an error. I have changed so many settings so many different time and there still is no solution. Can someone please help me?
Hello. I've got a question about mummies living w/households. Every time another member of such household is near such mummy, a shock/fear notification will pop up. This is getting to be VERY old. I really enjoy having the mummy, but if there's not a way to disable these annoying pop-ups, I'll have to get rid of him, and I don't want to. Please help?

How do I select which Sims 3 expansion pack to play? For example, I downloaded Island Paradise. Where do I go to play it? It doesn't show in the Sims 3 folder. Thank you
I purchased an item (e.g. Dance Collection) for Sims3 and it asks me to put in my password. The member login window that opens to type in my email address and password just blinks out and comes back on and does not let me do anything. I tried retyping it. I tried to even reset my password and had to do that all through Origin, EA, etc. (getting codes, sending it to my email, etc.) It is still doing the same thing. It was approved and in my purchase history. Yesterday I had no problem downloading items that I have purchased. I did not have this problem. The only thing different that happened is that when I purchased Sim points. I did not receive them. I could not get a hold of anyone and sent a message through the delivery service of purchase. I received the sim points after that and ever since then, I can't download the item I purchased for Sims3.
I wanted to ask whether the Sims 3/4 would come to the Xbox One. I used to have the Sims 3 on Xbox 360 but then we sold it to get an Xbox One. Will there be a Sims on the Xbox One?
What is the matter with Make me an OFFER ..

My sims 3 base game is updated but when i go to instal any expansion pack it says it is incompatible! i have uninstalled and installed everything 3 times now and 3 times i have deleted every origin and sims gaming i have on my laptop. I can't understand the issue! D:
I have recently brought Dragon Valley Sims 3 off the Origin Store and there were many steps to follow and I did and as it got to the last two they said once you have brought it go to your purchase history, so I did, and then it said that Dragon Valley would be there and then you click on it and press download but it wasn't there and I have now been waiting for 2-3 hours for it but nothing has happened. please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now that Sims 3 store cards are no longer in stores, How can I buy points for the sims 3 (not 4) with out using a credit card/paypal? Will a Origin card work as well? My only option is to buy a card to get a code to redeem. Will a sims 4 card work?
