Hey y'all!
I'm sorry if this post is irrelevant now, I don't think I've read anything since page 200 and something. But, my game was updated (the cd key showed up) about half an hour ago! I have not tested how it is running yet as I have uni work to do, but after I'm done I'll come back to let you know about how it runs! I'm thinking that games should be starting to work much sooner than we thought! This will probably not be true for everyone in the next 20 minutes, but we're getting there!
Another note. I still do not have all of my packs... I think this is normal. I'm not sure if @MaxisJoe has mentioned anything about that, but I'm not too worried about it at the moment. The team has clearly had a bigger issue to worry about haha.
I'll update you soon about how it runs (and maybe if CC works)!

Mine does too! I was able to receive a CD key for the game but I’m not sure if one CD key covers all expansion packs?? Which might be the reason why they say finalizing, @MaxisJoe can you confirm this?

Hey! I will attempt to upload a screenshot of my launcher in a minute, it says that the file is too big 🤦🏻♀️ But when I do look at my launcher, I'll say that it looks like the normal TS3 launcher... if that helps whatsoever. The expansion packs that I have downloaded all show up at the bottom. The only ones that are grayed out are the few that I still don't have the entitlement for. Also, I'll take your word on CC.

So I finally got the Sims 3 64bit to work on my computer.
I uninstalled everything, contacted EA, they put the CD keys onto my games, then I redownloaded everything and I could finally play my game!
I created two sims and a dog. It took me probably a good 45 mins lol after that I selected which house I wanted my Sims to live in and that's when my game crashed.
I've repaired my game, made sure it was updated, etc... but every time I go back to play it works fine until I try to move Sims into a house.
HELP ME
what should I do to fix this!! I just want to play lol

Did you have to get separate keys for your expansion packs ??? @treskamckenzie

Any luck on successfully installing Sims 3 Packs? I keep getting 'critical error' even after repairing the game. I have a game key as well.
EDIT : ITS FIXED THANKS
Thanks to @JustCallMeNerdy solution :
"If that's not the issue, please open a Finder window, hold down the option(alt) key, click Go at the top of your screen, then select Library. From there, open Application Support > Origin, and see whether you have a folder inside labeled Installer Data. If you do, please open it, take a screenshot of its contents, and attach it to a post.
If you don't have the folder, create one; be sure to get the name and case exactly right. If you have one, trash it and make a new one. Then try to install a new download of one item, and let me know whether it works. It may help to install a Store item first, although I'm not sure" ( @JustCallMeNerdy ).
I did have to uninstall my game and delete my sims 3 folder (it regenerates when you reinstall)
P.S don't forget to hit 'repair game'
