I would just like to say that up until just a while ago I myself had stuck saving screen issues. Thankyou so sos os sososososososo much this helped me completely. My save attempt worked! I have no idea why so if you could provide me with some information on that I would greatly appreciate it. package files to my desktop (again with the exception of the TravelDB.package) and ran the old saved game. This does not exist in my new saved game (with the exception of the file which exists in both the new saved game and the old saved game). So I noticed in my old saved game there is a. I do have CC but since a new 'the sims 3' folder has been created, and I was adding folders back 1 at a time, I have not yet added the CC.

Unable to save, no error message, just stuck on the saving screen. I am experiencing exactly what the OP posted about.
