  copied them to the ultimate folder, they wont show up, then researched and realized i have double deluxe and university installed and ultimate in a different folder.
  now when i hover the icon on the desk top that i double click to play i get
  program files 86 the sims 2 ultimate fun with pets Sp9
  that folder has
  CSBin
  TSBin
  TSData
  do you know by chance where my files go?

  You're moving your old saves into the game files. Don't do that.
  
  The old saves go into the Documents save files - Documents\EA Games\The Sims™ 2 Ultimate Collection

  The saves are in My Documents just like TS3 and TS4. Don't mess with the game files in My Computer unless you know more.

  Okay. So, next - what do you want to move first? Maybe I can help one at a time.

  Okay, Neighborhoods go in - Documents\EA Games\The Sims™ 2 Ultimate Collection\Neighborhoods
  The Whole folder (N00#)
  
  Now, before you move it, make sure there isn't already a neighborhood folder with the same number. Pleasantview is N001; Strangetown is N002, Veronaville is N003. If you are moving one of those, make sure to delete the newest from the neighborhoods folder and then paste your N00# folder.
  
  The families associated with those neighborhoods will be in that folder.
  
  The Whole Folder is what you move -
  
  
  This is what is in the folders (if you had all the expansions and subhoods attached) leave them there. Don't remove or mess with these
  
  
  .................
  Now, are you talking about your Sims in Bodyshop? (SavedSims folder)
