Hi there. I got the game Sims 4 for Mac a couple weeks ago and just last week the game started but then said "application not responding". It had gotten stuck on the loading screen and I've tried a bunch of different things like repairing, reinstalling the game and removing files people had told me to remove as well. If I could please get some help with this problem I would deeply appreciate it

Moving out that Sims 4 folder means you play a completely clean, vanilla game with no previous saves or CC/Mods and default graphics settings as the folder is recreated. That your game loads without your previous data indicates that the problem is most probably CC/Mod or Save related.
Please do it again, load the game and then close it but do not save. Next, replace the Saves folder that has been created in the new Sims 4 folder with your old saves. Now try and load your game again. If it loads ok then quit the game but DO NOT SAVE. If it loads then the problem is with your CC/Mods.

Go into Documents > Electronic Arts and drag the Sims 4 folder to your desktop. Now try and launch the game again, does it work?

Yes, it did work but all my saves and custom content were gone. I enabled my CC and later went into my mods folder and my custom content was still there but not in my game.

I'm sorry but I don't understand what you mean, I'm too confused and I might need help. Do in case have a video to demonstrate me how to fix my CC not working when I move out the Sims 4 folder into my desktop? Thx
