I installed a couple items, but now it's failing everytime I try to do more. What's going on? It says that I need to make sure I'm updated, but I am. What's going on?

I have the same exact problem.
Sometimes it will let me download an item to the game, other times I get the same message you get,
that I need to make sure I'm updated (but I am!) ... I don't know what's going on?

This is happening to me, too! I bought a bunch of stuff and it worked for while, but then disappeared and told me I needed to update. So now I get cc from TSR because my game doesn't work with .package files, and TSR is pretty much the only site that uses .sims3pack. That's ok though, because they have some pretty good stuff, but I can't help but miss the sims store stuff!
Ugh, this is getting frustrating! I want to get a new house from the exchange store and it's not loading into the game! Could I have too much from the exchange store in my game? Should I try deleting something first?

I know it is frustrating ....
I don't know the answer to your question, I wish that I did ....
I don't know why sometimes some exchange item WILL download for me, and other times one
wont?
I try not to download anything with premium items although I have bought things from the store
It IS frustrating when it is something you really want ....
Actually I figured it out! I do the Save File download instead of just adding it the game and that way has worked so far! I downloaded some houses last night and some new clothes and they all worked. So, you guys should try doing that one.
"Save File" to an assigned folder, and installing it by double clicking the icon is a much more stable method of retrieving things from the Exchange.
"Add To Game" can be very unstable sometimes.
i have tried the save file method, and i still can't save everything that i custom downloaded?? if i download a sim, only some outfits and some accessories will show up in the game - but none of the hair styles save. i am new to using a mac, and i use to use the sims2 for pc... that was SO much easier!
After it downloads, do you click on the little icon down by the trash can and then click on the link and the window should pop up that downloads the content into the game. Is that what you do?
