Hey guys,
I'm trying to install The Sims Complete Collection (the first one) on to my mac mini. I did it a while back, but then my hard drive wiped and I had to start everything again.
I've dragged the sims folder from the disc to my hard drive, just as the instructions told me, but I'm having problems.
Firstly, an error message comes up saying "The Finder cannot complete the operation because some data in "ExpansionShared.far" could not be read or written. (Error code -36)."
So then I looked into the folder that it is transferring everything into, and only a few files have been copied over. I tried clicking on the sims shortcut icon thing, but I just get another message saying "The Sims Complete requires Read & Write access to the "UserData" folder. The current user does not have Read & Write privileges. Install The Sims as the current user or log in as a user with sufficient privileges." I'm on the only account on my mac at the moment, and I'm just trying to install the game!
I really don't know what to do, and would be grateful for some help, as I've been wanting to play this game for ages!
Help!
