Wow!  Yes - they do.  Have clicked on them and trying downloading now.

Call me old fashioned - I thought buying the CD would mean it would install from the CD.....

Standby and I'll let you know how I go.

 

Thankyou so much!

 

Update - looks like the download worked for Dragon Valley.  Haven't tested the Monte Vista yet, but I'm confident it will work.

 

Thankyou for your help!

We have the same problem, with both Dragons Valley and Monte Vista. Neither show on the Purchase History page either. We've tried going the Register a Game route but the serial number on the insert only has four groups of alphanumerics which is invalid according to the Sims3 site.

Why is this happening?

Hi,

I've been having the same issue with trying to install it, however finally got it to work.

If you go to 'Redeem a Code' instead of 'Redeem a Game' it accepts the code and will prompt you to go to purchase history to then download it once the code has been imputed correctly.

Did you try redeeming the code as suggested in this thread instead of installing it from DVD ?

I had the same issues with both dragon valley and monte vista. for me going through the redeem a code and then downloading, and installing, the content worked for me. So thank you Standard smile

 

ps. I think they should put a notice on the box if they're just going to make you download the content anyway. I prefer to buy the CDs then to download the content, and I wouldn't have wasted my time going to the store if I knew my CD would be a hunk of useless plastic. .. just saying,

The file should be on the DVD. I don't know how it works exactly though and for some it just doesn't install if you go through the DVD.
