I feel like the EA app always have problems. Either the EA app won't open, or it dosen't update my game. And sometimes I can't even open the sims! I miss back in the day when we had origin😢
Oh trust me Origin is just as bad! I have a Mac so I'm forced to have Origin and it's terrible. The first time I had the sims I only had it for a couple of weeks before the game just refused to work(it was saying the game was already started) and then finally a year later I was able to get it back, which so happened to be 2 days ago. The same thing just happened to be today. I didnt even have the game for 3 days before it crashes and refuses to work!!
I’m so mad I can’t get origins back I got ea after being forced to update. Now I updated my game and now it won’t even start and this is on my MacBook 😞
The EA APP IS REDICULOUS!! I click on the sims icon, and the ea app pops up and says, a game update is required to play the game.Then it sends me to the game Hub icon, and I click and there is no update needed.. unreal.. I spoke to some one at EA and they said they are working on it yeah right...
I have a problem, where the sims is not launching, but it dosnt give me any error code, or anything. It dosnt even say that the sims is launching! Idk if this is a problem with the sims 4 or the EA app. But in any case, i really want to get this problem fixed so i can play sims again😢😭😫
@ChristineC.75 i'm having the same problem right now. after months i just wanted to spend some time in sims 4 again and then this... ea is really that bad with their app, support... everything. it's ridiculous. hopefully they'll get the problem sorted out soon. although i'm no longer hopeful...
This is happening to me as well! i was downloading some preset mods and when i opened my ts64_exe game it wont work and now i deleted it and decided to use EA and steam since it wasnt launching in the cracked game, but it just occured the same way! there's no warning after i click the play button, it just says its launching and then suddenly its back to the EA app again :( it keeps on repeating again and again...
Hii just an update here, letting ppl know that my problem has been solved! It's most likely your mods folder! its better to organize it and my problem was a carpet rug cc mod i recently downloaded and once i placed it into the mods folder this had caused my EA game to not launch! so its better to organize ur mods.
just randomly yesterday after i downloaded a reshade for my sims game, it like suddenly stopped working. like the game was launching it seemed but it was just a white screen for a few seconds and then it went back to the EA app. It didn't even show any error codes or "the app didn't launch" or anything. so i'm really sad and confused :(
I really need help my sims 4 wont launch its driving me crazy sims 4 is like a stress relief for me so not having it now am stress,i restart my pc ,clear cache and still dont work ,repair it and stil doesnt work i really need some advice sigh😢😢😢😢😢
Recently my EA app isn't launching at all and neither is the Sims 4 when I try to launch it separately. I've tried clicking and double clicking but nothing. Pretty sure it was working only a couple of weeks ago, sometimes it does this, it has before and then it just starts working randomly again so I don't really know what to do. Any suggestions? Please tell me I'm not the only one with this problem. 🤷♀️
@sophiedeards2360 I finally got it fixed, I cleared the catche and then ended up uninstalling both EA and Steam. I reinstalled both again as well as Sims, and it finally launched.
Hi i know the problem isn't related to this video but can you help me pls , when i make a new family or load a save it tells me to choose a season to play for example when i pick spring or other season it tells me to pick a place to live and it shows only blank space and i can't do anything i tried so many methods to fix it but nothing worked can you help?
Yes, could work for that too! Remember to delete the EA cache as well as you can try to go to task manager (if you’re on Windows > Select the EA Background Service and end task). Then reopen EA app & try to download
This video is the only one I need to help me open up the Sims game. Unfortunately, I have done this like 3 times already in the past 2 months, so I'm really hoping something gets fixed soon
Thank you so much i have been getting so frustrated trying to fix this for a week now and i was finally abe to play the game again because of you in less then 5 minutes 😭😭
Whenever i launch fifa 22 it shows preparing game and then nothing happens and it shows background service blocked 8n ea app but i allowed it from firewall.. i tried every single step snd it use to work before but not working rn.
PLEASE HELP! This isn't related to this video but I've been looking everywhere for an answer. After running Better exceptions, it found approx. 1000 cc that were outdated or broken. Is there a way to quickly delete all of them from my mods folder? usually I have to copy and paste the name of each cc item and locate it that way in my mods folder and delete them but there has to be an easier way then spending hours or even days going one by one. believe it or not that's what I've been doing even if there are 100+ conflicts. I just cant do it anymore.
Bro everytime I try to open the sims 4 it sayd "preparing game..." then "app timed out" I CAN'T FIX IT. can u PLSSSSSS make a video to help my problem or can anyone pls tell me how to fix this
Hi 👋🏻 few days ago I encounter an issue with sims3 launching through EA app. It was working perfect with no issue before And all of a sudden it won’t Launch. Instead a message pops up every time saying “this game requires administrative privilleges. Do you want to Grant Access to launch this game ?” I Click Ok And nothing happens. Sims 3 launcher opens And goes back to EA app. It’s a constant loop 😩 please help, i don’t know how to fix this. I uninstalled the game twice and that didn’t helped. I cleared cache for EA app And uninstalled And installed few Times… 😢
@@DarielleMine doesnt say anything, i just open it and it brings me back to the ea app and its like that over and over again. I tried to bring out the mods folder and i could open it afterwards but how do i find what cc is bugging the game? (I have around 2500-3000 files of cc)
Here are some steps I follow after every single update & it does wonders for me 1. Rename the Mods folder into Mods old (keep the Mods old folder in your TS4 folder) - do this with your game completely closed 2. Remove these files from The Sims 4 folder: localthumbcache & gameversion (this way we remove any temporary corrupted mod files, similar to getting rid of cache!) 3. Launch the game (make sure you have script mods & cc enabled in game options) & close it rightaway 4.A new Mods folder should appear in TS4 folder (make sure it has the resource.cfg file inside!) if that folder did not pop up, launch the game once again and make sure that the scripts & cc stayed enabled in game options > other > apply changes > exit game > relaunch it > exit it, now the mods folder should appear after following this process 5. Copy all of your cc - clothes and furniture - (but no script mods or functional cc, things like life mods, restaurant mods etc) from your Mods old to the newly generated Mods folder 6. Download the updates for the mods (if there are any! If there are not, we gotta be patient a bit & wait till those updates get released🙏) 7. Place your updated script mods into your newly generated Mods folder
Hi, actually my problem is the EA app is not opening! the login page does not load, it just shows a black screen, so i cant really enter in the app and start the game. I already tried clean the cache, reinstall and repair the EA app. Can you help me?@@Darielle
Omg can you possibly help me??? Lol I keep getting the video card installed/make sure your computer has the latest video drivers or sum like that…. I’ve updated everything, updated the game, repaired the game, cleared cache …. Idk what else to do
Did you install the latest drivers for your video card? You can tell what video card you have by going into task manager (search bar) > type device manager > click the arrow next to Display Adapters > that is your GPU Find the right & latest drivers for your GPU If that does not work, then resetting the EA folder does the trick for me, always! 1. Go into Documents 2. Right click the Electronic Arts Folder 3. Rename it into Electronic Arts Old (Keep it there, don’t remove it) 4. Open your game (now it should open since we reset our EA folder) 5. Time to put our files back into the game so close the game completely (you should notice a new EA folder in your Docs, that’s where we are gonna put our files) 6. Go into the EA old 7. the Sims 4 > Saves folder > select all files > copy 8. Go into the new EA folder > TS4 > Saves folder > paste all of your files there 9. The same thing applies to our Tray, Screenshots and cc! So 10. Go into the EA old > TS4 > Tray folder > select all files > copy 11. Go into the new EA > The Sims 4 > Tray folder > paste all files Do the same with your Mods & Screenshots! PS. make sure we don’t copy any mods (aka files that end with ts4script or any kind of functional cc - you can tell by their names, things like restaurant mods, life mods, school mods, toddler mods etc) Clothes, makeup, accessories, build cc can be copied! Once we’re done copying all those files into the new EA folder, we can open the game & it should work!
@@RiPlayss does cutting the mods folder, pasting it onto desktop & opening the game do anything ? (btw, keep it there onto your desktop & don’t delete it, we’re just testing the game to see if this is a mod problem)
