So I finally decided to reinstall my sims 3 game and all content today to be able to play with seasons and wait till that comes for Sims 4 which in the meantime I am just collecting all the packs.
However I noticed that a little of my custom content from the Community Store is in game but the majority is missing and some I couldn't get installed that was bonus content that came with special unlock codes for the Packs. Even an EA Technician couldn't solve the issue after hours of going over it with multiple people and having convos ended because I didn't respond as I was trying to do what they said so I am stumped! How can I access my Store bought content? Can anyone help please?
Uninstalling and reinstalling didn't work. I also don't want to do anything that will loose my saved fairy I created as I totally adore her. So any ways to fix this up please?
Thanks

What are the content missing? Some of the set you could have for "free" with a game are still there and can be bought separately (like Granpa's Grove for me), so the general links to these sets on the store should still work. Some of these have been discontinued but should still be working on your purchase history. Can you give us more information?
Thanks though
Appreciate the help though
The other issue is that latest store patch that shows up in your contentpatch folder as a package file. Apparently you can't download that from the store anymore; but if you have it in an old sims 3 folder, you can copy and paste it in. If not, search the internet to find where old patches are archived on the internet. Here's one:

I think these items and premium content ones are particularly sensitive and might need the dcbackup file retained when you eventually can reinstall them.
Good luck @Goodywood and @Sorceress!
