Ok, I'm not sure if this has been asked already, but how do you go inside a different building (camerawise) than your own house ? All I see is a building or from the outside or an empty inside; with no furniture, only a floor. I'd like to see my sim doing his work, for example.

I see my sim with interior when looking through windows from outside fine.. you only see I think other peoples houses inside if you go visit etc, otherwise they are left empty.. But your own place should be fine all the time. No Ideas here why you have that problem.
Edit: ah re-read ur question, then no u dont see him at work etc, but gym, invites into homes and all that you can.. othewise as i said nada... Ill leave what i typed a min ago incase its worthy of info for others lol.

I think you can only go into community buildings. Never into work buildings. That would be awesome though, if you could actually WORK at work. But you can only see outside. Something tells me though, that might be an expansion in the future (unless you could already do that with other Sim's games).
This build mode is slightly fun, slightly frustrating.

I couldnt select any empty lots for my first family either.. Only one of the pre-built houses.
You can however delete everything in that lot and start over.
You can also enter the "edit/change city" mode and add more pre-built houses to the empty lots (that still are unviewable when starting a new character), or build a new house.
But yeah, i still cant just make a new family and move into an empty lot.
Either i gotta move into a pre-built house and raze it, or i gotta build a house in the edit city mode, go back out, and buy it with the new family. Its a bit of a hassle.

I was able to move into an empty lot with my first and second family... I just disabled the tutorial before I played.

Did you check your save folder? The game keeps a backup file of each save there (it's the save you made prior to your current one) - in Vista the folder is C:\Users\UserName\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Saves
The actual savegame is for example Sunset Valley 1.sims3, and there's a backup called Sunset Valley 1.sims3.backup

changing display driver from 181.71 beta to 185.85 may have worked - i played 2 hours sims3 with no crash and saving games worked as intended. but after the 2 hours sims2 i started wow up and it crashed after 1 hour and wow never crash for me :/
i have a question for sims3 : how do you manage to do things when from i get up in the morning i spend all time having the green bars up. it takes 5 minuts to sit down on a chair. if i have to go work at 8 i need to be up at 5.30 to be able to get bath toilet food. sims3 has the same error as sims 1 and 2. time is passing TOO quick and it destroys the game. i cant believe they still made that big error.

What really annoyed me: I wanted to make a good meal for the competition in town but until 14:00 I was only allowed to prepare brunch, but I had to go to work! WTF am I supposed to do? Should I've done the meal in the afternoon before and put it in my inventory for the whole night? It would have rotten...
@Zarni: You've got to reach Guitar-Level 5 at least to play for money...

Is it possible to get a dead sim back (without cheating) ?
I found her in the graveyard but i have no idea if it's possible to make her live again, but i do remember someone talking about it.
