1st Make sure you are logged into the account on which the game/s were registered.

 There's a good chance Origin updated and you need to login again, but make sure you are logging in with the account info on which the game was regisutered.

 If you're getting the "code already used" message, it means the game code has been registered.

Please make sure you have "Show: All Games" in MY GAMES selected. Have also a look at "Hidden Games" because manually hidden games will not appear in the "All Games" view.

 Should you have issues with a recently bought game that is not showing up in your games list in Origin, then please take a look at this post first: http://answers.ea.com/t5/Origin/I-bought-a-game-but-it-does-not-show-up-in-Origin/m-p/54908#M951

 
 Your game should show up in the "My Games" folder of the Origin account you used to enter the code. If your game isn't there, you're either logged into the wrong account or the game hasn't been activated yet. It can take a while. If it doesn't show up you'll need to contact a Game Advisor.

5 Select the type of issue and the platform you play on, and click on "Find Solutions".
6 Click on the blue button "I still need help" if the FAQ articles do not apply to your situation.

thanks it worked i had to log in with my original details i am a happy bunny now 

[DesertShadow720]

I had this exact issue. Then I realized my steam games were UPlay games, not Origin games. T_T;;

It's getting confusing these days.

i tried to go on hidden games but it wouldn't let me  i don't know what to do 

[LynxiDilara]

I found that if you go onto the base game and hover over it and click "I" (Information) you will find all your expansions/stuff packs

[Rose_Mino]

Why did I never think of doing this? All my games besides the original Sims 3 Game disappeared but of course, I hover over the "i" of Sims 3 and found my expansions and just re-downloaded them!

I will say this though, I have had past issues with EA and have tried to contact them about it, but of course, they never respond -- which is terrible customer service! It's disappointing because I am in love with a lot of EA games and it took me over a year to find this seemingly simple solution that could have easily been taken care of if a representative had gotten back to me promptly instead of ignoring my contact.

But anyway, thank you for posting about the "i"! Now I got my games back!!

[Gascanu007]

I have the same problem right now. I'm trying for 3 day to contact an EA game advisor and no success at all. I think this is the *ies customers service i've seen until now. And i still dont understand how can all my games for wich I paid dissapear like that, and if i try to double click the shorcut on my desktop I'm asked the product code that of course when I introduce it says that the code has already been used. I would like some help and it would be nice if EA would actually care about it's customers.

@cata11111 Hi,

Are you sure that you are using the same account that you had used initially to register the game? I would suggest trying any other email addresses you might have to see whether the game is registered on that account.
If you are unable to figure out which account it might be, you will need to contact an EA Game Advisor: https://help.ea.com/en/contact-us/new 
You can find details on how to do so here: http://help.ea.com/en/article/contact-ea-help/ 

Log in with your EA Account and choose "Origin" as Product, your Platform, "Manage my account" as Topic, select "Find missing game" and describe your issue to see all available contact options.
If there is no phone support or live chat available at the time, please scroll down below the Answers HQ box to check our live support availability for your region.

You mentioned that you did this already, apologies that it has been such as a hassle. Please try again once more as the situation should have improved now.

Thank you,
Nils
