This user has the following games installed:

Sims 3
Default Can't download update/patch!!
Ok, so whenever I open the sims 3 launcher thing a little pop-up tells me to download the adobe flash plug-in thing. It tells me that when I go to game updates in the launcher too. I usually just press cancel(if you push ok then it takes you to the website where you can download it) and whenever I do in game updates it says that it can't connect to the download manager. Therefore I can't download the update or patch or whatever its called. But the thing is, that I have downloaded the adobe thing. Multiple times. I've restarted my computer after it and everything but it still doesn't realize that I've downloaded it. When it's done downloading it it says that it downloaded successfully and all that stuff and it tells me what version it is and yada yada. But it stills tells me to download it. Other websites like youtube and stuff that use adobe flash player work its just the sims 3 for some reason. Can someone please help me!!??

Try a direct link maybe? Pick the patch that corresponds with your version or you will get an error saying wrong region when trying to install. Hope it helps.

Sorry but I"m not really a computer person and I have no idea what all those numbers mean. So I don't know which version to pick.
And where do I save it to when I"m downloading it?
Coffee, anyone?

Emily, just go to the site and get the patch. Sims 3 patch The launcher will automagically install it. Or, if you just download the file from the link in HP's post, save it to desktop or where ever you can remember , and double click to install.

I'm worried that my latest Salvation Army donation will result in homeless people looking like sluts from the 90s.

On the bottom left corner where it says "version" just check the last number,it will either say 01,02,05,107 or so and just download the one with the same number from the links above. Also just save it on the desktop then when it's done downloading,just click/doubleclick on it.
