see if this works for you http://sims3.crinrict.com/en/2011/09/error-saves-are-gone-options-are-reset.html

My work around:
Copy a working saved game to your desktop
Copy files out of save file that will not load
Delete files in the working save file folder while game is at the select a world screen
Paste copied files into the now empty working save file folder
Load the working save file
Once you load the game save all important lots and families (Re-Saving under a different name will not work)
Close game
Restart sims3
Load a new world
Place families and lots in new world
Save game.
