I get this error message:

I have Windows 7, and I think it started when I updated the game to the Late Night update. Does anyone else have this issue, or is it just me. If it is just me, what do I do?

How do you do that
I'm pretty sure that means that the base game isn't patched all the way. Every new update means you have to patch the base game and each EP and SP. If one of them is missed, you will have issues.
By starting the game with the main .exe and not the Launcher one. Like for my game, Late Night is the latest pack I have installed, so I start by opening C:/Program Files (x86)/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3 Late Night/Game/Bin/TS3EP03.exe
I just updated my EADM this morning

YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!!!!!!!!!
No, it does NOT mean that you have to uninstall and reinstall your games. This is a fairly common problem that people have when updating. I am not sure why as I have never had the issue, but if you search "Base Game Incompatable" in the search box, you should find more than 1 thread with instructions on how to correct the problem.
If you are running the DVD version of the game in the US you will want this update:

If you have the DVD Version in Europe:
