how about mac they dont have DLA what should i do with the disc authorization failure help please
when i click on that arrow to start playing it says no disk found disk authorization and i went on youtube but nothing helped and i love the sims can u plz help me
i am running a mac book pro and installed sims 3 world adventures as well as late night. how do i disable dla? i uninstalled the late night and just had sims 3 world adventure installed and it ran at first. i then reinstalled late night to see if both would work and i ran the world adventures disk while late night was installed and it worked. then the next day i tried world adventures and the disk authentication error came up?
@help: IT WORKS FINE ON MACBOOK PRO UNDER WINDOWS 7. HELL YEAH!!!
mine says disk authentication failure
nd the disk is in dere can u help ?
i have sims3 original cd and it works great! i actually downloaded the expansions pack ambitions to complement my game. i installed it thru magic isodisc software and i get the “disc authentication failure” game. can anyone help me about this problem?
“we are unable to verify valid copy of the sims 3 high-end loft stuff.
Please contact customer service.” please help me
First, I’m assuming that IT IS a verified valid copy?
We are more concerned with people playing the game without paying than we are about giving paying customers a quality game.
I have the same problem but it IS a paid for game. We think we solved the problem but now it says that the disk cannot be read
I am using a mac.
I CAN’T FIND THE DLA TAB!!!
Mue, could you help me find that good EP crack?
i have 2.3.33 version and every crack i got from internet doesn’t work … i always got that authorization error
Bad idea because cracks don’t work or they just make the game worse.
Great advice….new subscriber.
Thankz for da info lee!
I love the sims part of your blog lee, its very helpful and the newspaper lot you made is beautiful!
This helped me a lot…THANKs ASILEE!
Hi, i’m getting ‘update error: invalid file found’ when i try and install the patch/update, so that i can play the world adventure add-on, has any one got any ideas for what i can do?
You might have to uninstall then reinstall the game.
I will help you, I was getting this invalid file found for ages (probably 100x
) so firstly tell me, which version do you have now (you can see it in skuversion.txt, important is all the number), and which one you want. Secondly, do you have original game or cracked? If cracked is it razor or reloaded?
There’s no point, that person won’t be back to answer your questions.
His/her problem
I also found out how to “repair” disk authorization error 
) Just look for good EP crack 
can someone please send a link for the patch!
WHAT PATCH!
@help – GREAT THANKS!!!
u saved me, i was fighting with that problem for like a month … and now it works perfectly!
I have tryed everything to get rid of this i havent even had a chance to play the game yet i saved up so hard now this it is realy frustrating i have not got roxio or dla or nothin i checked & i updated my dvd drives & software still nothing i followed loads of instructions that help some people but i ended up crashing my laptop & it took a few hours too fix i hope this gets sorted soon.I have a emachines laptop with windows vista
I was playing the game without a problem until it happened today for the first time.
I have found a solution to that problem!!!!:D
just download this crack!

It worked for me!
i downloaded it and im having the same problem. I dont have Roxio or Sonic on it and I tryed rebooting but that didnt do anything.
It could be your disc drive.
i got the sims 3 about a month ago, and it worked fine. now, all of a sudden, the disc authorization error pops up everytime i try to play. i have a new hp laptop, and i’m very bad at using computers. help please?
It could be the disc drive or the fact there are some incompatible drives that can’t work with the game.
Finding a robust patch management solution is becoming more and more difficult as machines are less and less accessible to the management console. I have found success using patch management software from Kaseya. Because of the agent based framework, I have connectivity to every machine that is connected to the Internet, independent of location. – URL: http://www.kaseya.com/products/patch-management/features.aspx
I was having the disk error problem. EA has just (FINALLY) released a patch for Sims 3 to take care of this problem. I have a Toshiba computer and downloaded the patch thru EA’s download manager and it worked perfectly after that.
Wow, how did you download it through the manager? Its not there.
Never mind, I found it, it wasn’t in the Download Manager.
i would like to get in contact with EA via phone. If you have their number, please respond.
thanks!
Hey just wanted to say that for those who are having these problems and arent using DLA software, heres how to fix it.
I had the same problem, I knew exactly what was on my system as I built it myself.
Contact EA support providing your own serial number (or make sure youve registered it) tell them the problem, and they will allow you to download the sims 3 from the EA download manager.
It took a day for me to download the 5.6 GB’s of game, but in the end, when installed, it worked, and I now don’t need the disc to play the game.
Trying to tell everyone who may have this error. That way it can help others.
I found your blog on google and read a few of your other posts. I just added you to my Google News Reader. Keep up the good work. Look forward to reading more from you in the future.
I’ve been having this problem, but I’m using a Mac and I have no idea what any of this is talking about. Help?
hi i solved this disc authorization prob by mounting NS-SIMS3_DC-poseden
try to google : NS-SIMS3_DC-poseden
I just bought a new dell laptop recently and it’s got Roxio software with it. I thought because it was to do with burning, copying, etc. cds that it would interfere with running The Sims 3 which I was correct on since EA said it themselves.
The thing is, I uninstalled Roxio (because I don’t need it) and I still can’t play The Sims 3. I have gone into Computer and clicked on the CD drive icon but it says to please insert a disk into drive F.
Am I doing something wrong?
I have all the specifications required.
When did that happen before or after you uninstalled Roxio? Then again, Sims 3 have a problem with certain disc drives.
I have this error everytime i try to play the sims 3! But i don’t know how to disable DLA or what is Sonic or Roxio Software
CD burning software. Thats what that is.
Their fix doesn’t work for most people. Didn’t for me. Some websites advise registry fixers but I’m 90% sure that this advice, linking to software, will just burden you with ransomeware and viruses.
The only solution I’ve found so far is to install a no-cd EXE, which I use after loading the splash screen and getting any updates I want with the legit EXE.
Next time perhaps I should just pirate the bloody thing from the getgo. All of their advice makes me think they have some DRM protection running, but don’t want to admit it. Thanks for punishing us legit users EA. The crackers solved this problem for their ‘customers’ in minutes.
