Installation error on mac

★★★ Newbie

Hi! Whenever I try to install the Sims 3 on my mac through Origin (I've had the game installed before) it says that an unexpected error occured and that I should turn off and on my mac and turn off my adblocker. I've done all of this but the error message still pops up every time I try to install the game again. What should I do?

@LindaSmile1  Please run the Origin reset tool, restart your computer, and try to download the base game again.

If that doesn't help, please post a screenshot of the error.  Please also post the full specs of your Mac, including operating system, as described here:

On the About This Mac page, click the Storage tab, and let me know how much free and total storage your computer has as well.
