It appears the Mac users are now able to update their game within their launcher…A post has been added to the official Sims 3 site that the 1.7/2.2 mac patch has been made available.  It fixes two problems:

  • Fix for save file incompatibilities that result in the Error Code 16 error message while saving.
  • Mac only: Fix to app forwarding so that World Adventures Mac users can download store and exchange content.

Considering I’m not too knowledgeable on the Mac patches, if anyone knows where I can download all of the regions for the Mac please let me know.  I also believe I’ll need the 1.5/1.6 Mac patch as well.
