@jaxxyce , even if you've removed your Mods/CC prior to updating, something may get stuck in the code and it's best to move the entire Sims 4 folder (Documents > Electronic Arts > Sims 4) to your Desktop, but do NOT delete it! This is where your saved games are stored.
Next, start up the game and allow the game to generate a new Sims 4 folder. Remember that none of your saved games will be present at this time. Start a new game and play for a little bit to make sure that no other issues are present. Quit the game. You can then move your saved games from your Desktop into the new Sims 4 folder.
Please keep us updated.

I have the same problem as described above! Just tried what you said with moving the sims folder to the desktop, even deleted all of my cc’s the other day! Unfortunatly nothing seems to be working so please let me know if anyone find a way to be able to play for more than 20 minutes!
The crash varies from quitting og restarting the
mac! See the pictures attached.

@FridaJoh did you make sure that Origin In Game was turned off? This can also cause Sims 4 to not start.

Yes, double checked now and it still doesn’t work! Sometimes I can play for 20 mins but nevermind more than that!

@FridaJoh , we need the specs of your Mac. If you do not know how to find this information, please use the link below to see how to find it. Please do NOT include your Serial Number as this is "private" information.

if it is still not working: I have talked with an advisor and he said that Mac users have that problem now and they are working on it. They will pronounce it when it gets fixed (on Twitter). I have the same issue too
