I've had the Sims 4 since the release and there have been no issues with it besides my cc/mods but I had resolved those on my own. Recently my game just wouldn't open, I had left it on for a whole night just incase it needed some time and it still said "Application Not Responding." So today I removed all my mods/cc and trashed them, tried to start up my game and it still said "Application Not Responding." Then I went into Origin and clicked "Repair" and it STILL said "Application Not Responding" and finally, I uninstalled and re-installed the game and got the same thing. I repaired it a total of three times and still nothing. I don't know what to do at this point..
Solved! Go to Solution.

I have this problem too. however as I looked a lot into it i have found multiple ways to fix it.
If You take out the "sims 4"folder out of electronic arts/the sims 4 which should take away any cc/mods, then log into origin and take a right click on the sims 4 game and press "repair" it should repair anything broken in the game including software and everything else hopefully fixing the system of the game on your mac book.
I do not work as part of Sims but i am more in the Sims community
Hope this fixes the problem x

@EmzyStar258 Did you try using the Origin reset tool linked above? Bluebellflora also a few other ways to troubleshoot your game in her thread stickied at the top of the Sims mac page. Here are a couple of posts that might be helpful to you:
You might also try uninstalling and reinstalling Origin itself. There are a number of files that need to be deleted before you reinstall.
