      All of your sims. What are their current actions set as in the queue?

      This is not an error unless they are all moved in. No one should be able to do this when a move is in progress. If you moved them via the computer or the phone, everyone has to be in the new home and you have to wait until that is complete before you can go into buy/build mode. :wink:

      However, if all the sims are totally moved in and you're getting this error then you've caught that moving bug/glitch and I have never found or seen a way to fix this. :( That bug is the reason I never use the computer or phone to move anymore. I alway just move them in Edit Town mode. :?
