I last played my game on Thursday (June 10), and I opened it today (June 12), and my save files aren't there. It appears as if Ive never played before so its just the play button, no option for load game or even start a new game, and I did not delete the saves myself. I looked in my save folder, and they were still there.
I removed my saves from the folder, deleted the folder and started my game so it would generate a new save folder, but it still did not read them after I put them back in.
I removed my mods in case it was a broken mod interfering with it, but that did not work either.
The last thing I did was delete sims and redownload it and that did nothing as well.
Solved! Go to Solution.

I managed to load your game fine after renaming it. I completely missed it in your screenshot - you have your saves named incorrectly, maybe because your Mac has saved duplicates and added a number to the end. The saves should be Slot_00000002.save with no space and number after the initial Slot_00000002. Same for the Slot_00000003.save and Slot_00000004.save. The ones ending in ver are backups. To give you an example, this is my saves folder:
Rename your saves and they should be good to load.

I have 12.48 GB of free storage on my MacBook, and I am using 15GB of 50 GB in iCloud storage. I removed my documents folder from iCloud storage and relaunched my game, there is still no Load button.

The path is
Electronic Arts> The Sims 4> saves
The actual Basemental game mod is in the mods folder, that generated by itself into the saves folder. The content inside says basemental-settings-craftbeer.json. does that as well, but I took it out of my game.

Thanks. Let's do a really thorough search.
Please open Terminal and copy and paste the following command then hit Enter/Return:
find / -type d -name "*The Sims 4*" 2>/dev/null
After a little while it will return the results of the search. Please copy and paste the results in a post here.
