I FIGURED OUT THE PROBLEM. got all my stuff back. what happened was i was organizing my documents and i accidentally put the ea folder into my new games folder. when i went to check and make sure i didn't do exactly that, i saw that my ea folder was still in my documents, where it used to be so i was relieved. what i did…
thanks for suggestions. thinking on just uninstalling the sims forever... :\ i've spent more hours trying to get the game to work or to fix it than actually playing it :(
update: my mods folder has also disappeared... not that i had a lot of mods, but the folder isn't even there anymore (or the contents obviously). my store content gone, but all expansions still installed (only have three or something). does nobody know how to prevent this from happening in the future?
thanks for the reply!! glad to know i'm not the only one.. also sad to know i'm not the only one :( sorry about your game. "to fix it"? do you think we can get our content back by reinstalling? i'm thinking that it had to have gone somewhere... like, i have nothing in my recycle bin! files don't just disappear, do they?…
i could not find a simpoint/ea game card. however, making swagbucks was easy-peasy. i made ten dollars in the second day i was on there (few hours). i wanted to get ten dollars for paypal and then buy simpoints that way, but they require a bank account, which i am not comfortable giving out. does anybody know a way around…
if you're talking about my request cancellation, it's not like that. i requested on a different request team and then i couldn't dl the item. then i had someone else make it for me out of kindness. bottom line: instead of waiting three+ weeks, i only had to wait less than a day since i made my request with dna team.…
i really wish you would've just uploaded the cat as a pet like i asked. i have no idea if the download worked now and i won't know if it worked because it won't be under my saved pets. i have no idea where it will be. pets can't even be households so it makes no sense to make it a household in my books. would've been more…
so... are you ever going to upload my request? or should i make a new request to request the same item that i never got? :( it shouldn't be that difficult to complete.. i mean, just go back in game and upload the cat under another name. then i will retry to download. maybe try uploading it as a pet instead of a household…
btw i really did want help and thank you to those who tried to help. i wasn't just trying to rant. it just ended up happening since i am frustrated at no solution :( i was hoping that someone had fixed the problem in the exchange by now as i know that other people have had issues as well :|
my game is up to date. i can download from the exchange. there are certain items that i can't, though. that is what is bothering me. there is something that has been changed in the last little while that is making some items undownloadable. the thing with me blaming ea is that i have problems with more games than just the…
"my game is up to date". also, why would i need an update to download a pet? aren't pets all just from the pets expansion? what could've possibly changed so much that i'm unable to dl pets? i think it's just another ea fail. so disappointed in ea. too bad they don't care since they're making money either way :( why do i…
so far, all i've been able to do is try again. for some sims, reuploading works the first time. for others, it's taken me about a month of retrying to upload them. something that has kinda worked for me to prevent the issue of failed upload is that i upload ONE AT A TIME. so don't "select all" and upload. if i upload one…
