    (..) I found my saved games and they are still in the Sims 3 applications folder under saves. How do I make these games link back in with my games? (..)

    Just to make sure: there is the Applications folder and then there's the Documents folder.
    The program The Sims 3 should be in your applications folder (Applications/The Sims™ 3/The Sims™ 3.app). Apart from that app, this folder should contain only some ReadMe's, the Uninstaller and aliases to any EP/SP you installed.
    Your saved files should be in your Documents folder at Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3/Saves
    Within the Saves folder are the folders with names ending in .sims3 and beginning with the names you gave your saves.
    If this is indeed the way your game files are set up and your saves (still) don't show up, you might try the following:
    - if the Sims is active, quit it
    - drag the folder Saves from Documents to a place outside the Electronic Arts folder, say your desktop
    - start the Sims, create a new game and save it with an easily recognisable name like XYZ or TrashThisLater
    - quit the Sims again
    - find the new Saves folder that the game should now have created. It contains only the game you just saved: XYZ.sims3
    - drag all your saved files out of the Saves folder at your desktop (that is: all folders ending in .sims3) to the newly made Saves folder in Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3/ Your old saved folders should now sit alongside the XYZ.sims3 folder and the old Saves folder at the desktop should be empty
    - dragXYZ.sims and the empty Saves folder from the desktop to the trashcan
    - start the Sims again and (hopefully) find your old saves available again.
    Good luck!
  • @Ashpeef I tried that the first nothing second nothing,I found what solved the problem I started a new game all the way from every beginning saved the new game emptied the data of the new saved file dragged all my data from my saved game into the new saved fold and my saved game returned.
  • Isn't that exactly what I described? I can't see where you did something different?
    Anyway, I'm glad you managed to restore your saved game!
