When I try to download my Sims 4 from Origin (Mac) it will download around 2-4% then stops working (the Network Speed p/s gradually gets slower and slower). Its really stressful and a waste of money, please help

*Edit: to turn on Safe Downloading on Mac*
at the top bar where you will see the apple logo in the left corner then it says origin account view games etc ?
go to origin then preferences
then the advanced tab and scroll down

The first step, checked in Origin/Application Settings/Advanced/Safe Mod Downloading-checked Enable Safe Mod Downloading and do not forget make sure you are the administrator, run the setup file Origin with Admin rights and restart Origin.
Solved your question ? ...please hit Accept As Solution on the post they did so others know it worked or have the curtsy to say " Thanks, but it didn't work "

As suggested above, checking Safe Mode has worked for me and allowed the download to not freeze as it has been doing. The download is a bit slower but so far has been stable for the last 20%.

The safe mode that was mentioned seems to be doing the trick... although the network has dropped 7 times so far, its getting there slowly at 65%! Zzzz
Just keep having to force quit it and resuming the download.
