The above invisible status option is more likely to be impactful than this one, but if you've gone through it a dozen or so times, this really couldn't hurt.

Though, it's not likely to have more impact than just launching and closing the EA App, some have found that rebooting their PC and trying again has led to being able to update The Sims 4 today. If you're getting really frustrated, this is an option. If you're already logged in, which is most likely, you can also set yourself to invisible status via the drop-down menu when you click on your username at the top right of the window.Īfter doing either of these, click your username again and set yourself as being online to try to force the EA App to see you and initiate the patching process. There's a little checkbox just below 'Keep me signed in' to do just that. When you first log into the EA App, you can choose to set yourself as invisible upon login. You can either log onto the EA App as invisible or set yourself as invisible, then come back online to try to jolt the servers into recognizing you. Option 1: Go Invisible on the EA App, Then Come Online There are only two potential ways to get around The Sims 4 refusing to update, and both of them are rather easy. This is just part of the server issues and is something that will be ironed out once EA's servers stabilize again. Additionally, many are finding that the EA App isn't able to recall their game library today. Since The Sims 4 updates on its own normally, you'll have to do things a little differently to try to prompt it into action.
