Mac game store play on steam install#
Here’s a thought: if you’ve enough space on your MacBook Pro, either install Windows via Boot Camp or, as I prefer to do use Parallels (I prefer the latter because you can move files and text from MacOS to Windows). There are very, very, few Mac games on Steam (in fact, there were so few, that the Mac Steam app is now legacy).
From the (many) complaints I've seen, nothing stops people from registering multiple identical copies of a game to one Origin account. If you're interested though, you could always buy a product key from an authorized third-party seller like Amazon or Best Buy and register it to your account. There are ways around it, but that's kind of beside the point, and even so, you'd still be in the same position of not being able to install your Steam-owned packs either. This particular scenario is sort of an edge case that the features designers probably didn't anticipate. Origin generally does not allow players to buy a second copy of content they already own. So it's not that players receive a Steam "license" that only works in Windows, it's that Steam itself will only install Sims 4 into Windows, and Origin won't install the game if you own it through Steam. And Steam only supports installing into Windows. The important point here is that if you own Sims 4 through Steam, you still need to install through Steam, not Origin. Funny how now that it's installed, if I log back into my other account it still shows as uninstalled.Īnd lastly I thought I'd try to gift it too my first account but guess I would put things a bit differently. Yes I've played 30 hours with out the sweet sweet DLC. And purchased the Digital Deluxe Edition with out a problem and installed it on my Mac. Out of frustration I made a second Origin account. If No, Why can't I install the steam version onto my Mac. If YES, where is it? why can't I buy it? from my Mac? So is there a Mac version that's different from the Steam version? My only choice is to purchase it as a gift, because I must own the only version there is.
So I went hunting for that version in the Origin store. So I figured there must be a Mac version that I need to purchase. When I log into my Origin account on my MacBook it won't let me download Sims even though it says i own it.

But I want to play from my MacBook Pro while I'm away from home.
I've purchased ALL of the Sims 4 content through Steam.
