Sims store downloads on multiple macs?
« on: February 03, 2011, 09:56:49 PM »
Does anyone know if you can download sims store purchases to multiple computers? I have an imac with all the sims custom content on it and have installed every expansion except fast lane and have registered the games. I have installed the same on my laptop but I never registered the games. I'm afraid that if I register the laptop games I won't be able to use the content on my imac(which is my main computer). Has anyone tried this yet?

Are your laptop games loaded from different disks?  I mean, you bought more than one copy of the game?

No, I only bought one copy of each expansion and installed on both computers. Only registered games on one computer because I thought you couldn't register game twice.

When you register on the Sims 3 site, you're registering your specific game, not the computer it's on.  Once you're registered and have an account, I think you should be able to download and install your Store items on either computer.

And welcome to our Forum.  :)
