    That usually means either there is a temporary problem on EA's end (this is common) or you need to clear the cache and all cookies on Internet Explorer, assuming you are using Windows. Even if you never use IE as a browser yourself, the Launcher and the game borrow its resources and these things can get jammed up. Be sure to deselect the option to preserve cookies for Favorites (usually the top one).

    Sorry that didn't work, it does for some not always for everyone. Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling Origin in particular?

    I'm having the same problem. I can play the game but the info window in the top right is gone I assume since I can't log in. I cleared the cache for internet explorer and chrome, I uninstalled and reinstalled Origin, I retried linking my game serial number to my EA account, I reset my EA password, and even tried making a new account in-game but since my game was already linked it didn't work. But everything just comes back to the log in not accepting my password.

    I am so sick of the problems I keep having with Origin and my sims 2 Ultimate Collection and my sims 3 signing into launcher problems...I have repeatedly tried everything that has been mentioned here and on other sites and nothing works...or it works once then never again...is there any useful information that can help me to stop having these annoying situations. I can log into the origin launcher no problem same as EA account please help me...I use google for my email so every time I have to go reset my password I am forced to leave the EI browser...

    Sorry to see you're having issues, currently all technical issues need to go through The The Sims 4 AHQ. Considering this thread is pretty old I'm going to go ahead and close it off. If you have any questions about necroposting you can read this thread here : Necroposting
