Aspyr has released two The Sims udpates. One update is for classic MacOS while the Carbon update will work on OS X and MacOS (if you have CarbonLib 1.2.5 or later installed).
The Sims Carbon is an update to the original (1.x) version of The Sims for Macintosh, and as such requires an existing installation of the The Sims 1.x. The Sims Carbon cannot be used to update an existing installation of The Sims Livin' Large or The Sims House Party.
Once you have installed The Sims Carbon under either Mac OS 8/9 or Mac OS X, you can play The Sims Carbon under either Mac OS environment without reinstalling it.
On Mac OS 8.6 or 9.x, The Sims Carbon requires CarbonLib 1.2.5 or later to be installed.

Comment by Anonymous: I have OSX and when I try to install the game it says it doesn't not have enough memory??? I have a brand new G5 so I know theres enough, But I think it's referring to the classic version. How do I get past trying to mess with the classic 9 version that seems not to have enough memory and use the carbon installer to install it straight from 10??? Please help I can't wait to play! (

Still not an updater for the install program, so the Sims wont install under Mac OS X.
