God, this went South of the Border.... Back to Graphics, Laptop Mode - and try playing with the other settings too - Drop them all down.
Check your Memory....no Background running progs.
Remove ALL MODS to check too.

@stevenssimsstuff I don't play in laptop mode because it makes my custom content look like this: I'm not entirely sure it's got something to do with the graphics as I have adjusted my graphics fittingly for the poor quality of my laptop (it's a Lenovo and it runs Windows 10- if I hadn't have just bought my iPad, I would buy an iMac because I seriously love everything Apple and despise everything that is not Apple related). Anyway, since this problem has occured, I have adjusted my graphics settings to no avail- I believe that somethingn went wrong during the updates as it's probably something to do with broken programming :C I've looked my problem up on Google but no one else seems to have this problem. If no one can help me here, I may have to email EA support team.

If your CC is Looking like THAT - It is a Graphics Issue.
I have a Stock Rig - HP Pavilion/64bit/12GBRAM/NivideaGTX745 Graphics with 4GB...or was it 6? Ram and some extra Windows Graphics that came built into it....runs about €840, that was over a year ago...so, lower now. Windows 8.1 - Keep putting off Updating to 10, but they sent me a, "Warning", only 1 Month left to do it for Free....ha!
I have known a few Co-workers with Apple Products...all i ever heard was, "How can i get this Microsoft Prog to run on my Apple?" It's Funny, but it's true.
You need a better Graphics Card.
If it has something to do with the Game - You need to Erase it and Re-Download the Whole Thing to check.
It's O.K. to Hate Me for saying that, i completely understand.
You should just be able to check the Game in Origin....if Origin says, everything is O.K. - It's a Graphics issue.

Get a PC that you can play, "Grand Theft Auto V", with. Sims4 problems are GONE. Trust me on this.

Quick update: if anyone else is encountering this problem, I chatted to EA support (for Sims 4) and they said that I had to uninstall and re-install my game :C but make sure you backup files that you would want to keep (Custom music, mods, recorded videos, screen shots and tray, if you downloaded houses on sites such as TSR).

@stevenssimsstuff the EA advisor told me to reinstall everything :C and also, thanks for your PC advice, but honestly, I use my laptop literally just for Sims 4 and making custom content, so tbh, there would be no point in getting a proper PC.

I think it is because of the strings language files too. You can try repairing the game through Origin. That might solve it. If not desinstall and install again.

Mathcope I tried repairing the game via Origin twice, but it did not solve my issue :C it's been downloading for about an hour and a half and it's only 5% >:( I envy those online who were annoyed that it took them an hour to download! It's going to take me days!

GeometricSims, re-installing game helped to many simmers. I also had some problems with the game and fixed it by re-downloading the game. Also did you see this post? There are a few mods that cause this conflict: MTS_Gaffney_1458435_GTAradiostationrename Daveo88_NPCs_Gardener_v0.4 MTS_BiscoMix_1467912_TVComputerRevampMod1.2

Feyona Hi, thanks for getting back to me. My game does have empty bubbles that should say 'water' when you click on a sink or 'have a quick snack". However, I do not have any of the mods that are listed. Before I uninstalled it, I did switch mods off and the problem was still occuring and as I said, I believe that something went wrong in the update as it happened as soon as the gender update was installed. My game has been installing for about 15 hours, still have a few hours to go. It's killing me, shows how much I am addicted to playing Sims :C

UPDATE: the only way that I fixed this problem was by uninstalling and reinstalling the game :( this was a total pain as my internet caused it to take 48 hours to download I CRI.
