@puzzlezaddict I uninstalled Sims 3 and the dlc over the weekend and just attempted to reinstall. Everything is queueing up properly and installing right now! Thank you so much for all of your patience and help!

Re: Sims 3 supernatural download error

@LoreGalore  I'm glad to hear that, but my real contribution here was just flagging your issue for someone who could actually fix it.  That person is happy to see this resolved too.

I have gone thorough all the steps that are usually recommended. Like these here:

Also a fresh install of both the EA app as well as The Sims 3 does not fix the issue. A support agent previously recommended I use the super updater, but that didn't fix the issue.

Hello there! I'm sorry to piggy back on this thread but I am having the same issue with Supernatural download error. I've tried the steps listed in this thread along with contacting EA support (they've been no help...). Is there any way you could help me? I'd so appreciate it!

Hello!

I am having the same issue myself except my issue is with university life, High end loft stuff and Late-night expansion... I have done everything suggested in this thread and contacted support twice who just ask me to either uninstall orgin and use EA app or uninstall EA app and use origin lol.. i am going around in circles at this point. 

Both the EA app and origin app are not installing the same things but will work perfectly fine with the base game and all my other expansion/stuff packs 

Please help!!

The Sims 3 Late Night won't install

★★ Novice

I recently installed a new drive in my laptop and had to reinstall everything from scratch.

 

I installed The Sims 3, and all the other expansions/game packs through the EA app, but when I try to install The Sims 3 Late Night, I get an error every time. It's only with this expansion, the rest installed fine.

 

"There's a problem with your download

Something went wrong during your download. Give us a few minutes, then try again."

 

I have tried installing it several times and I get this error every time.

 

Anyone know how to fix this and get Late Night to install?

Re: The Sims 3 Late Night won't install

@DARKNESS470  I've merged your post with another thread on this issue.  While the title does say Supernatural, this problem has been affecting more packs as well.  It's still being investigated, so keep an eye on this thread for updates.

 

@roberta591  Sims 3 expansion and stuff packs can't be downloaded from thesims3.com, only from Origin or the EA App (or Steam).
