Re: sims 4 November 2019 crashing Mac

My game has started doing it again, getting to loading a household in then just quitting itself and taking me back to origin. I’ve done all the processes I did before, moving the folder to desktop, updating Mac software, re-installing and re-setting origin, repairing game but nothing seems to be working. I just bought cats and dogs the night before yesterday and it was working fine for hours but then yesterday just stopped working. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Set up a new Administrator user account on your Mac and see if you can play in that account.

Will this mean that my Saves won’t be there? X

Yes, but they will be safe in your current user account. You need to try a brand new clean game in a new user account to see if it is something interfering in your current user account.

So I ended up trying to play another family for an hour or so, that worked perfectly fine then went back to the one I originally wanted to play and it just won’t load. Seems to be a problem with that household in particular as I have made a new household which is working fine also. is there any way to restore a previous save on a household? As it was being odd before it stopped working, the fastest time going really slow etc. Thanks in advance

See Crin's blog page here about saves, it is wonderfully informative Standard smile https://sims4.crinrict.com/eng/2014/09/save-games/

It is currently May, and I've been having this issue for months. 

My Sims game was running fine for months and then stopped working randomly. It used to not happen very frequently, but now I am at the point where I can't even play the game anymore. 

I can't even use my Mac if the Sims 4 app is open, otherwise, my whole computer crashes and says "Your Mac restarted because of a problem."

 

Since it has been a few months, is there a way to fix this? I have gone through a few different threads and I'm still not really sure what to do. 

 

Here is my Mac information:

MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2017, Two Thunderbolt 3 ports)

Processor 2.3 GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i5

Memory 8 GB 2133 MHz LPDDR3

Graphics Intel Iris Plus Graphics 640 1536 MB

 

My Origin app is 10.5.70 

 

Thank you!

@m1ssserendipity

If your Mac is restarting it is because a serious system error occurred and it closed down to prevent any damage.

Which macOS are you running? Have you moved your Sims 4 folder to the desktop and launched a completely new clean game?

Im having the same problem aswell. It's only one family I can't play with, the other works fine. Haven't been able to play without buggs since forever. Done all the updates, but can't manage to get it to work as it should.
