If Sims wont play DO THIS
I have an ipad and my Sims would not go to Work or school for the past 5 days. It is not from a 'time cheat' it's from an update that Firemonkeys state they are working around the clock on...(yeah right it makes you use more LP to keep your Sims from aging before they fulfill their dreams)
TO GET YOUR SIMS BACK TO WORK AND SCHOOL....Go into
1. Settings (for all you brainiacs it's the little cogwheel on your ipad screen -sigh--
2. General
3. Scroll down the screen to : Background APP REFRESH
4. TURN BACKGROUND APP REFRESH OFF
Then go back into your game and your Sims that are ready to go to work will be flashing(it was 725 pm when I did this and I had 9 musicians that their briefcases were blinking again.
PS. When my Sims stopped working I would still receive the notifications that it was time to go to work but their briefcases were not accessible)
I would also suggest for everyone to to hit the menu in SIMS and then touch the 'cloud' and back up your data at least every few days as well. Happy playing I am on Level 37 with 34 Sims.
