Hi again, @FlabbaWokei - Officially, Aspyr says you can't transfer old game files. I'm not sure that's correct, though, unless they changed something about the way the game files are saved. You can only transfer offline games, since Aspyr doesn't have online/multiplayer. I know you decided to return the game to Aspyr, but just in case you'd like to try this anyway:
Game files in the Origin version are saved in: /Documents/SimCityMedia/Games
Game files in the Aspyr version are saved in:/Library/Containers/com.aspyr.simcity5.appstore/Data/Documents/SimCityMedia/Games
You might have to actually play the Aspyr version and save one game file first, to make the Games directory. Log out of SimCity first. Then copy the contents of the Origin Games folder to the Aspyr Games folder.
