[Guide] Sims 4 Tray Importer for macOS Sierra

[emylacy 0]

Yes, I tried that too. I think i just have to accept the fact that there's no way for me to use it for some reason :\

[deevo 2,045]

Did you receive an error during the chmod command?

If so, check the path or try putting sudo before chmod.

 

 

Else try to clean everything by removing S4TI and Mono.

 

Downloads the latest version of Mono from here.

- Run the installer package.

 

Downloads the latest version of S4TI from here.

- Extract it then move it to /Applications

 

 

If you still receive the "Can't be opened", you'll need to find why it still not register as executable.

When I try terminal, it asks me for my password and i enter it in. After that, it says theres no file location or whatever for the sims 4 tray importer app

[deevo 2,045]

@emylacy Are you trying the chmod command with sudo?

Yes it may ask for admin password.

 

From: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7586240?start=0&tstart=0

STEPS:
1. Open a terminal
2. Here are the commands:
cd
cd Applications
cd Sims4TrayImporter.app
cd Contents/MacOS

chmod +x Launcher
or
chmod +x *

if it doesn't work, try with sudo

sudo chmod +x Launcher
or
sudo chmod +x *

 

Note: * will patch all files in the current folder.

One can even do it remotely with a program. 

 

Where it hang and what is the error?

I just updated, and it's still not working. Every time I try and open a household that I saved after the patch update, the entire thing quits. Someone please help!

[deevo 2,045]

@madisonxox Have you downloaded the quick fix from here?

 

Unfortunatly, if even this version doesn't work you will have to wait for version 2.0 or try to run the Windows version through Wine or alike.

[madisonxox 0]

Yes it't that version. Every time I click on a Sim that I saved to my library after the update the entire thing quits itself. And when I click on a Sim that was in my library before the update, it doesn't quit, but doesn't show any of the custom content on them. The section is just blank.

[deevo 2,045]

@madisonxox There are two versions, you must download Sims4TrayImporter_20170930_novfix.zip to get the fixed version.

I only patched some files so that it works with the November update, but I cannot update it since the build is broken. 

 

If it does not works, try to run it as admin which should remove some restrictions on the unattended file versions caused by the quick fix. 

[madisonxox 0]

Where is the actual zip file? That's not a link and it doesn't pull up either. And I already have admin rights on my computer.

 

[deevo 2,045]

@madisonxox The file is in the beta thread

[Mereruiha 1]

it opens and works fine with one exception

i can open old households and delete files but anything new (novemeber patch forward i assume) crashes the app. 

is there anything i can do to fix this?

 

im on a mac - el capitan btw

Hi,

 

I have a macOS Sierra (ver. 10.12.6). I downloaded the program and the mono frame, the program opens but when I click on any lot/sim it crashes. 

 

If anyone can kindly help me with this problem, If I really can't open it using MAC then I want to use wine but I don't know what mono frame to download.

 

Thnx.

Reinstalling Mono may fix the problem.

The Windows version will not work on Wine with Mono, you will need the full .Net Framework. Details are on the download page.

I'm confused with downloading all this

. I downloaded it at least 10 times already and every time I move the tray transporter to my applications and try to open it, it says file cannot be opened 

[deevo 2,045]

Hello @Peppermint Patty,

I think your GateKeeper is blocking it. 

 

Look here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202491

How to open an app from a unidentified developer and exempt it from Gatekeeper

If you are confident the app downloaded from the Internet is the latest version and is from a source you trust, you can open an app from an unidentified developer by following these steps.

 

Note: In most cases, you will only have to perform these steps once for all user accounts on the Mac:

1. In Finder, Control-click or right click the icon of the app.
2. Select Open from the top of contextual menu that appears.
3. Click Open in the dialog box. If prompted, enter an administrator name and password.

Thanks @brutumfulmen

 

hey so i can open the application but when i click on a sim it just closes. could this be a problem with my mono

[deevo 2,045]

Make sure you have the latest version.

If you still have the problem, try this S4TI Mac Crashes when I select sims or lots from left side

[Shandelle Buhl 0]

So, it opens and everything, but my cc is not showing up, and I can't do anything with it. I tried to import something, but it just closes. I had to select the game by hand because the file that was already selected wasn't working, and it just kept asking me if that was the correct file, every time the app restarted to work on that file, it just kept asking me the same thing and nothing was happening.

I have a problem, the application opens fine but it doesn't load my library. I looked through the post that you linked on this page but I can't find anything that will work. Please help! It can't seem to find the game and I don't know how to make it.

 

Never mind! I fixed it

*** Nevermind! I kept looking for it in the thread but I found the answer.

 

I followed the above steps but am still having some issues.

 

When I open the program a window titled "config game" pops up with some options. If I click save a second window pops up warning me "config saved - This application must restart to apply changes - Restart Now?"

 

If I hit yes then the whole thing starts all over again.  If I try to cancel out of everything I get to the tray importer but it is empty and I cannot import my items.

 

Any idea whats going on?
