I dont have any of the Sims games but from what I understand Nightlife no longer shows up because you have installed Open for Bussiness. This is how it is supposed to be.
Open for Bussiness contains everything that was in the previous Nightlife install.
Its works something like that anyway! I would not go doing a reinstall just yet until someone who does have the games actually confirms (or disagrees) with what I have said.

I can't really understand what the error is. I guess he meant that after installing Open For Business, all the Nightlife functions disappeared (such as the Downtown.) That would be a technical issue, and you should contact EA about it, using http://eatech.custhelp.com

Clearly a technical issue, I insist on contacting EA's Tech Support with that. Although all I've heard from other people is criticism about it, my personal experiences show otherwise.

P.S. A helpful tip (not only for EA's, but for any company's tech support): Follow-up their responses until they feel like idiots and put someone who knows his job on line. That's what I did with my FIFA 06 issue, and after 3 follow-up responses which showed quite obviously that I knew more about computers than the person replying, I got a very helpful reply from a tech support representative who obviously knew what he talked about, and didn't look through automated responses to throw at me.
