It's been in my origin library since 2014, haha. But yeah, I'm seeing people with errors who downloaded the game as well. Hopefully both of our issues will be fixed!

I've had Sims 3 in my Origin library since it launched in 2009. I have the same issue as @criisreverte

So has anyone who didn't have the game at launch gotten it since?

I don't have it yet, either! (Not that I have time to play this week LOL) Patiently waiting.

I just bought the Sims 3 and to my disappointment, the game is unable to install. The message of "we've encountered a problem," keeps popping up. I read that with Mac's OS Catalina, the Sims 3 is unable to run properly. I also saw that there is supposed to be a new version of the game that runs on the new OS. Any updates on when that will happen?

Open Origin, select your Games Library, click on the Sims 3 then the Extra Content tab, and locate Ambitions. Next, click on the Download button and follow any prompts about the disk space it will use. Ambitions should start downloading. During the download process, the only option you should get in the orange button is to pause the download. You should also see a little window showing the download process:
When it has finished downloading the orange button should change to Install, you should get a dialogue window with your product code to copy, and the external game installer should automatically open. If you’re reading this then probably none of those three things has happened and instead you’re seeing this:
