Clutching at straws here, but any chance your custom clothes show up while in debug mode? You know, boolprop testingcheatsenabled true and Shift+N while in bodyshop.
ETA: By the way, what was the organizer you mentioned before? From what you've said so far, it seems to be the highest suspect.

You could also try regenerating the entire Documents/ EA Games/ Sims 2 folder again. Try some freshly downloaded items and make sure you enable custom content, disable the custom content dialog and then restart.

I've been using Download Organizer since it came out and I've never had a problem with it. All I can suggest is that you reclaim your games and reinstall :{ Download utorrent and install. www.piratebay.org for the expansions you need. Let utorrent manage your torrent files. When it begins to seed... Download Daemon Tools Lite. Install. Right click on icon in taskbar, virtual cdrom. Device, mount image. Point it to the torrent you just downloaded. Now get the nocd crack for your latest expansion from www.gamecopyworld.com. Replace latest EP's .exe with the new exe. No Securom.

Are you running the Body Shop for your latest EP?

Have you at least tried installing something new that you haven't used that Organizer to unpack?
All I can think at this point is to remove your Downloads folder to your Desktop, use the Bodyshop version that corresponds to your latest EP/SP to generate a new Downloads folder, and then download and install something new that you haven't used the Organiser to unpack. Don't worry about subfolders or anything yet, since it'll just be this one thing in the folder. Delete the cigen/accessories jazz before starting your game; then go into CAS and see if your new hair/lipstick/whatever appears. If it doesn't appear, I'm afraid a reinstall may be your only alternative at this point.
If it does work, though, try shutting down and adding one item from the Downloads folder on your Desktop (again a lipstick/hair/etc.), which you probably used the Organiser to unpack. Again, don't bother yet with subfolders. Boot & check out CAS. Are they both there? Than yay and try shutting down and putting those two into appropriate subfolders. Do they show up when in their subfolders? If so, start replacing more items. If, however, it's only the new and unOrganised download that's appearing, then the Organised items have been tainted in some way. Try unpacking a few and installing without using the Organiser.

And on the reverse of that, can you upload something? A lipstick, anything you can't get to work. Just upload it somewhere (it might even fit here, I don't know), and I'll see if I can get it to show up (or anyone else can, obviously)

Kataangrl. The signature. Cut it out. Did you not read the FAQs?

Actually, there isn't anything about signatures in the FAQ yet. I thought it was obvious that huge signatures were a problem. Kataangrl, please have the courtesy to shrink your picture down to less than half its current height, or consider removing it entirely, for the sake of people on dial-up.

From your brief answers it appears you've tried everything but a reinstall. So, what's left?

Liz: I tried that already Arina: Here Assuming this is meant to show up in one of the child clothing bins, it's broken - unless it's on a Maxis mesh from FT or an SP, none of which I have? (I know what a texture missing a custom mesh looks like, but I don't know if it would look the same for a missing game mesh - this just plain doesn't show up). But as you've also tried content other people say is working, I'm afraid I've got no idea any more (I was hoping it would be just one or the other). I think you will have to reinstall I hope that fixes it!

Also, be less weabo.

Seriously? You didn't just use a search engine to find the definition or the general gist of the word? You decided to post it back as a question? Well, I don't know what you did to bork your game, but if that's any indication of your ability to be self-sufficient in the world of knowledge, then I am not surprised it broke in the first place.

I'm at another computer right now. And I'm getting my arrr'd disks back (Yay Newsrover! ). But I'm having a problem on this computer too. The game doesn't recognize that I have Pets installed. It says, "You have uninstalled the Sims 2 Pets. If you continue, all pets will be removed from your neighborhood." But I checked the EA Games folder to look for Pets, and it was there. All I have is the CEP, and Insim.
