Installing Custom Lots

[kenny1402]

Hi, I'm new to this forum,
 
I've recently downloaded the sims 3 back onto my MacBook pro via origin, i tried to instal custom lots because i prefer them to the standard ones but never seem to show on my drop box when i edit town.
 
 
i do it the following way,
 
Downloaded desired lot/lots
Place into Documents/EA/Sims3/Downloads/
Then i launch sims 3 via origin
Once Launcher opens go onto Downloads, Install Lot one at a time (i check the status after and also to see if in installed content)
Close Launcher and ReLaunch Game via origin again
Load Sims 3
Go to New Game
Load Desired location
Edit Town
Click a 64x64 plot
Select Empty Houses
 
and nothing shows up that I've downloaded,
 
 
Anyone on here please help?
 
Thanks

I'm not exactly familiar with Mac computers, Bluebellflora's site has information that may be of better help.
