"I tried everything I've read here till I found a solution else where. I was shocked it works but here it is
Right click the game icon click show package contents or something like that then click the folder contents and there will be a file called info.plist click open it in text editor and find the line that says cedegaGameName then change the last part to read TSM.exe instead of SMLauncher.exe don't change anything else quit that and it should work just fine "


i can't find that line 
i think I'm going crazy right now

Ah ok. Well, it's there, @meowmeowx3's instructions are correct . With the Info.plist open hold down CTRL and press F to bring up the search bar, then type in cedega.

Hi @vorobevadiana,

 

Sadly I don't understand Russian. What does the error message say?

Sims Medieval says "activation failed an internal error occurred on the server."

★★★ Newbie

I have the online version of Sims Medieval and had it working on my old PC. I now want to use it on my Mac laptop. Sims 4 and 3 work fine, but Sims Medieval won't. I went through the installation process and verified the serial number there but then when I go to launch it it asks for it again. I copy and paste the SAME code that worked before, but then it just loads and then says 

"Activation Failed

An internal error occurred on the server. Click the 'Retry button to restart the activation process or click 'Exit' to abort."

I looked around for an answer and couldn't find one. I also uninstalled and reinstalled the game two times but it still won't work. 

Here are the messages it gives me when I open it:
