Hi all, just wondering if any further help on this?

 

Hi all, assuming this is quite a complicated one so would appreciate some help if any one can. Alternatively staff members can you point me in the direction of how to submit for a refund on the purchase as it's not able to work please?

Thank you. I've followed the above along with checking the location in preferences, as it advises, and still doesn't seem to be showing up in the new game.

Please read the article you're commenting on where it says

 

Click “View” > “Show Path Bar” in Finder and the full path will now be shown at the bottom of every Finder window

It will make your troubleshooting much easier.

 

You are still in the wrong location.

BAD: /Library
GOOD: /Users/{yourname}/Library

 

The instructions tell you to use ~ which is a shortcut for /Users/{yourname}/

 

It is impossible to go wrong if you use the “Go to Folder” method, please just follow the instructions rather than trying to work around them and find it manually.

Unless its cutoff in the screenshot it's meant to be “Library/Application Support/Sports Interactive” the screenshot seems to show “Library/Sports Interactive”

 

Hi, sorry not sure what happened there. Confirming this is the correct file path and still showing no data when starting the new game.

Hi,

 

Is someone able to help me as struggling to install the FM24 paid data update. 

 

It looks like all of my files were in public, so have moved to where it was suggested, but when I boot up a new game nothing shows up to allow me to get the updated transfers/players/abilities etc.

 

Thanks in advance and sorry if already answered, there a lot of pages on here ha!
