Hi,

just recovered from a system failure on my Mac and Sims can't be launched any longer (same as with many other apps that is...). I need to reinstall Sims2 and Pets and I'm fine with that, but how can this be done without loosing the saved games?

TIA

The saved games are stored in your Documents/EA Games/Sims 2 folder. If you trashed your installation, your saved games shouldn't be affected since they are stored in a different place.
 
As a general rule, most games on OS X commonly store their saved games in two places. ~/Library/Application Support/game name or ~/Documents/game name. Sometimes, they may not use the game name but the publisher's name like EA or Microsoft Games, etc.

I have yet to come across games saving data in the /Applications folder.
