Sims 3 Late Night won't install on MAC. [SOLVED] Empty Sims 3 Late Night won't install on MAC. [SOLVED]

Post by Guest Wed 26 Jan 2011, 04:12

Hello-
I tried to install the Late Night expansion and it comes up with an error saying 'The integrity of the installer cannot be verified.' And then it closes and will not install. Any suggestions?


//EDIT


I have answered my own question. I am going to post the solution as I am a MAC user and I figure this will be useful for other MAC users.

1. Unpack the zip file that was downloaded from D2D. A folder should show up.

2. Open "Disk Utility" on you mac.

3. When Disk Utility opens, click on the "+new image" tab. When the drop down menu appears, start with the top dialog box. Name it "Sims 3." 2nd box- save it to the desktop. "Disk Name", don't touch that one. The next box "volume size", hit that, and select custom. When the next window appears, Click the left box and put in "6". In the right box, change to GB. Now click on the Partions Tab, change it to just plan old CD/DVD. Don't touch anything else, click create.

4. Close disk utility.

5. Go to the desk top. There will be a Sims 3.dmg file, and a "Disk Image" Icon. Go INTO the folder that was extracted from the sims 3 zip file. Highlight all contents in the folder, drag them onto the "Disk Image" Icon. It will copy them. DO NOT DRAG THE FOLDER ONTO IT. GO INTO THE FOLDER, AND GET THE CONTENTS, DRAG THEM OUT OF IT.

6. When it's done copying, double click the "Disk Image" Icon that we created, go inside, Click the "The Sims 3 Installer" Icon. It will run.

I have confirmed that this also works for the Late Night expansion found on this site. Very Happy
