saved games gone

Help.

I recently completely wiped my Mac and since then I haven't been able to save a sims game. 

Everything is completely fine while saving it and the moment that I reopen the game, it's as if I never even played and there are no games available to choose from at all. 

Help? I've already looked for a second EA folder which I couldn't find...

@josephaphilippap  Your computer might be set up now to move your entire Documents folder, TS4 files included, your iCloud drive; you can check your preferences to see if this is the case.  Normally your saves would be there, but perhaps if the drive is getting overwritten or reverting to a previous state or something wonky like that, your saves wouldn't be preserved.  Anyway, you can uncheck the box to store documents in the cloud and see if that helps going forward.
