Sims 2 Patch Install freezes MacBook

I have my Sims 2 installed, and I downloaded the Universal Binary Patch for the game. I double clicked on the install icon, and then my MacBook freezes up, forcing me to force restart. I uninstall Sims 2, and the .plist file for it, reinstall the game, then try the patch install again. It freezes my MacBook up again. Anybody else have this problem? I can't seem to find a way to fix this. Thanks in advance.

Greetings.
I recently read that you ran SIMS 2 on 2GB of RAM. I have recently purchased the SIMS 2 and love the game; however, there is an issue with lag. I run the program on my Macbook Intel Core 2 Duo 2.0 GHz processor on my Intel GMA 950 video card with 64 MB of VRAM and 1G of RAM. I have set the graphic settings to the lowest possible settings. Would it be a good idea to upgrade my RAM from 1G to 2G for better performance? Or does the lag result from the video card? I also intend to purchase SIMS 2: Open for Business. Would my notebook be able to handle this expansion pack with the present specifications? Any possible suggestions would be extremely appreciated. Thank you for your time and effort. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you once again.

    When I put the disk in, it spins and then stops. The sims doesn't show up on my desktop. What should I do?

  • How can I install Sims 2 on my Macbook Pro?

    I can't figure out how to install Sims 2 on my Macbook Pro.. Anyone know how?

    That game is over seven years old.  It can't run on any mac in OS X that has 10.7 or later installed.  Are you trying to install in OS X or in a Windows partition?  Also, what happens when it tries to install?  If it mentions something about "PPC", it can't run in OS X. 10.7 or later.

  • Implementing Oracle patch P5092134 freezes when implementing

    I have a strange issue since this morning with implementing the note in the subject through MOPatch.
    I had no problem installing this patch on our Development, Pre production and production, but on our Quality it just freezes in the install phase.
    The dry run with mopatch did not give me any error and so I started the normal run as I also did on the other systems
    /bin/sh $ORACLE_HOME/MOPatch/mopatch.sh -v
    but than at the normal implementation phase it just hangs and does nothing even after 45minutes of waiting.

    Markus,
    Sorry for my late reply it had been awhile since I was here at SDN
    I did it manually in the 'old' way and at that time it did work.
    Kulvir,
    I did get it from SAPnet but when I downloaded it it contained the proper file.But I did had the same with an add-on for the business connector which only contained an empty file.
    Thanks for your answers and again sorry for my late reply back to you all

    please help me < when update my i phone 3G < i finish update but face problem , appear me msg There is no SIM card installed in the iPhone You ar attempting to activate. Please disconnect

    Sounds like your phone was hacked to use with your carrier.  Updating it has relocked the phone to it's original carrier.  You will not get the phone working again without a SIM from the original carrier.

  • I am trying to setup a refurbished iPad and I get a message block that appears repeatedly stating "No SIM card installed."

    How do I remove an informational message that repeatedly appears on the center of my screen of the refurbished iPad that I am trying to set up.  The message is "No SIM card installed."

    Hi Saddledoc,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like you are getting a message that the iPad has No SIM Card installed. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
    If you see 'No SIM' alert on iPhone - Apple Support

  • There is no SIM card installed after IOS update on 3GS

    Hey!
    I just upgraded my iPhone 3GS to iOS 5. All went well, then at the end, it asks me a few set ups (like language, Location, and WiFi settings).
    After that, it attempts to activate, and fails, giving me the following error in iTunes: "There is no SIM card installed in the iPhone you are attempting to activate."
    Problem is, there IS a SIM card in the phone, I tried taking it out, and putting it back in, tried with another SIM, tried the SIM in another phone, worked fine, just not the iPhone!
    I would appreciate any help!
    Also, the phone was Jailbroken before, and the SIM worked fine. Just not now, when it tries to activate.
    IS IT POSSIBLE TO GO BACK TO THE BEST PREVIOUS UPDATE OF IOS4. THAT"S ALL I EXPECT NOW!

    @wendy191,
    Have you jailbroken your phone before?
    If you have, I don't see any way you could go back to IOS4 (4.3.3 or 4.3.5) (However, experts might be able to help you)
    When you jailbreak you iPhone you update your baseband to iPad's Baseband i.e. 6.50 (something like that) & once that happens there's no going back (at least a legitimate way) unless you do what this guy says.

  • I want to re-install my Pre-Installed Lion Macbook Pro, but I can't get the Lion OS from App Store with my Apple ID. Please help, thanks!

    Hi, I want to do a clean re-installation of my end 2011 Macbook Pro which comes with pre-installed Lion OS. I go through the installation steps and after App Store verified my Apple ID, it prompted me that I did not purchase the Lion OS. I am very surprise to see this message which my pre-installed Lion Macbook Pro should have it. Please help and advise how can I get the OS? All other bundle softwares were in the purchase record except the Lion OS.

    That was my mistake - sorry - it IS Command-R to boot to the Recovery disk, not Command-D: I either just hit the wrong key or am just now coming awake from my nap.
    Let me see if I can just explain it in a few steps - I don't know of any link (but it would make a good User Tip):
    Create an up-to-the minute back-up of your internal hard drive using an external hard drive and Time Machine.
    Boot to your recovery partion - holding down Command-R on boot.
    Use Disk Utility to erase Macintosh HD - use one GUID partition and format as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". Unless you're selling the machine, there's no need to do a secure erase (which can take hours).
    After you erase the disk, re-install Lion from the same Recovery partition.
    After installation is complete, reboot, again holding down the Command-R keys to boot into the Recovery Partition.
    Restore your Time Machine back-up. This could take several hours.
    Reboot after restore and you're back in business.
    That should take care of everything - all you need is an Internet connection.
    Call back if I didn't explain things too well - at least I got the Command-R right this time!

  • Hi, my new Iphone 6 started to show an alert that reads: "No SIM card installed" any ideas on how to fix this, now I can't use my phone and is only 1 week old... HELP SOS

    I have a new IPhone 6 just went to the store last Saturday to connect it, (I am replacing my IPhone 5s) it says that I am updated on IOS 8.0.2 but now started to show a message that reads like this: " No SIM card installed" and I have no phone line or anything, my carrier is Sprint and I just got back from there and they told me that this is something I have to deal with APPLE because they have nothing to do with software. Anybody experiencing the same thing? any light in the tunnel? HELP....

    Hello henry lfrommiami,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    To troubleshoot this issue where your iPhone gives you the message "No SIM Card installed" please follow the steps below.
    Update your iPhone to the latest version of iOS.
    Turn airplane mode on and then off again.
    Restart your iPhone.
    Check for a carrier settings update. Go to Settings > General > About. Install any available update.
    Remove the SIM card and make sure that it's a valid SIM that your carrier provided. Also make sure that it's not damaged, worn, or modified. Then reinsert it.
    A SIM tray that comes with one iPhone model won't necessarily work with a different iPhone model. When you insert the correct SIM tray, the SIM tray should be flush with the device.
    If you have another SIM card, insert it. You can use a SIM card from any phone with the same format as your iPhone SIM card. If your iPhone works with that SIM card, contact the carrier that issued your original SIM card.
    Restore the iPhone.
    If you still see the issue, contact Apple support.
    If you see 'No SIM' alert on iPhone
    Cheers,
    Alex H.

  • ATT Iphone 6 intermittently says no sim card installed, but works the rest of the time.  thoughts?

    ATT Iphone 6 intermittently says no sim card installed, but works the rest of the time.  thoughts?

    Had a simalar problem. But we weren't getting any service. AT&T said it was a defective SIM card and pretty much everyone that bought an AT&T  iPhone 6 from the online store had a defective sim. had to buy a new sim from best buy because att were sold out because the problem was so wide spread.

  • Iphone 3gs no longer will work  after iOs5 update,comes up with message ' there is no sim card installed in the phone. Can anyone help me please. I am working as a volunteer in a remote location in Asia and no where near an Apple shop etc?

    I have tried to  update my 3GS phone and now it longer works as it comes up with message there is no sim card installed in the phone. Can anyone help please as I am no where near technical support as I am working as volunteer in remote Asian country

    Hi Allan,
    Thanks for asking, I knew I had forgotten to mention something. The phone was indeed unofficially unlocked, since there were no apple stores or even premium resellers in the region I lived in during the given procedure had to be done.
    I understand this could be a further complication, especially the fact the home button does not work. However, I was wondering if there would be a possibility to use a third-party application instead of iTunes to restore the iPhone? IF someone does know of such an application, I could easily solve further problems myself. Basically, the main issue here is my lack of ability to enter DFU mode.

  • OUI patch install hangs, files being used by another application

    Hi when a patch install hangs, and the OUI error message is that files needing to be reinstalled are being used by another application, how can you identify which files or processes are responsible so that they can be shut down? All normal Oracle services and DTC are shut down already.
    This is patch 6810189 upgrade to 10.2.0.4 (from 10.2.0.3) which includes the April CPU on a Win32 server.

    Please check any oracle service is still on ..
    need to shutdown listener/oracle service .. and other db service belongs to Oracle.
    You can download windows process explorer and check for any oracle process and kill those and then apply CPU

  • What is largest solid state drive I can install in MacBook Pro 8,2?  I want to perform a clean install of Mavricks and dump my old hard drive.

    What is largest solid state drive I can install in MacBook Pro 8,2?  I want to perform a clean install of Mavricks and dump my old hard drive.

    If the bank account permits, I suggest getting a 1 TB SSD anyway.  One cannot have too much storage. 
    Unless you are having issues with your current installation, a 'clean' install is not necessary.  It would be more efficient to clone your current drive to the new SSD, test it, and then do the swap.  The installation of Mavericks over Snow Leopard can be done either before or after the cloning process.
    Ciao.

    It sounds a lot like your phone was hacked or jailbroken to unlock it prior to your trying to update it.
    If that is the case, it is nowpermanently bricked.
