game launcher problem

[ Edited ]
★ Novice

i have just installed the sims 3 and the ambitions expansion pac onto my computer. now when i try to load the game launcher it tells me that my base game is not campatible with the current expansion pack and that i should update it via the game launcher. which i would happily do except the game launcher is not loading. i can see it but the little loading circle just sits there without actually loading the launcher. i tried to fix it by temporaily disabling my virus protection software thinking that was the issue but it didnt change anything. How can i fix it?

thanks
