 Sims 4 will Not play

My Sims 4 Game will not load.  It is greyed out and when I click on it, the Play button is also greyed out.  I have a Mac.  I have tried clicking reload game, I get a circle for a few second but remains the same.  Have also restarted the computer.  Can anyone help?  Thanks

★★★ Newbie

The game has been functioning correctly until yesterday. Today the "play" button is disabled. I logged out and logged in again but it's still disabled. I've seen this thread about the same trouble in PC platform and it seems the problem has to do with the Origin cache. However, the directions for Windows are useless for Mac.

 

Please, tell me what to do.
