EADM Issues
Problem(s)
- Issues while downloading custom content from the Store or Exchange
- Issues in patching (updating) through the Launcher items
- Launcher will not start
Cause
A common cause of the above problems can be with the EADM (Electronic Arts Download Manager) - a separate program that comes with the game for managing downloads.
Solution
Try uninstalling and then reinstalling EADM.
- To Uninstall: Follow these instructions from EA on doing a manual uninstall. Make sure to reboot your computer after uninstalling!
- If the EA link is no longer available, use our Game Help:TS3 Uninstall instructions. You need to look for the specific EADM registry entry and folders.
- To Reinstall: Get the new versions from this EA FAQ on How do I download and install the EA Download Manager?
After reinstalling EADM, make sure to also:
- Allow Adobe Air to install and then update.
- Reboot your computer.
- After rebooting, EADM might prompt you for another update. Allow it to do so.
