Hello,
I am unable to download any items from my purchase history in the Sims 3 web store. Whenever I click the checkbox and click download for any of the games and/or DLC in my purchase history, it launches Origin but nothing happens, and the download queue in Origin is empty. I've tried logging out and back in, uninstalling and reinstalling Origin, and rebooting my PC. Origin has admin rights, and I'm not using a proxy server. I'm on a homebuilt PC running WIndows 8.1.
Any advice?
Thanks.
Solved! Go to Solution.

@audibles16 Hi,
Your thread has been moved to The Sims 3 forums.
Generally speaking, if you right click the game tile in Origin and choose "View Game details", you will see more info about the game. Just scroll down on that page then and you should see some of the items available with a link to proceed.
Cheers,
Nils

rumbutter, you're our hero. I followed the steps you described and was able to download Dragon Valley perfectly. This seems way too complicated a design by EA programmers -- forcing you through Origin to download content into Sims is just silly -- but at least you were able to guide me through it.
Props!

- Start Origin
- Click Play on Origin to start the launcher
- Close Origin (completely not just minimize)
- Click add to game on the exchange or download on Store Stuff.
thank you so much - it worked!
