I had experienced GUI error sometimes when loading in buy/build mode, when some part of GUI and its icons were missing together with non-stop loading cursor, which forced me to minimize the game then task manager in background to kill the game then restarted the game again. Long time ago when I installed several EPs for experiment, I had experienced family bin error, the game always crashing after I moved any family from household bin into any lot, probably because of old or unsuitable patch.

I have Sims: 3 Pets and Into the Future. The reason why i wanted to move sims from family bin is because the former save of the family is ome sim is a murderer. As in Craig used guns to kill people. So i wanted to reset everything so everyone is alive. Then i had to recreate the family.

Does family bin families have their inventory emptyd? Or they still keep their stuff in their inventory? Edit: sorry for wrong spellings.

From my experience, if a family has stuff in their personal inventories when they're saved to the bin, then they'll still have those items when you place the family back into the world.

OH! Is it because custom items in the inventory are causing it to happen?

It depends on the custom item. If you have one that is slightly broken or simply not working properly on your patch level, it can do all kinds of weird things. A mod could also be causing the problem. backup your game.

Temporarily remove your CC. (Note: this is Temporary. You will end up putting most, if not all, of it back later. This is why you made a backup of your game as it is now.)

Clear the appropriate caches (DCCache is NOT one of the appropriate caches. Dashboard has a function which can clear them for you.)

See if it works now. If it does, your CC has a bad file and you will need to go through the "Finding Problem CC" article found here: http://simswiki.info/wiki.php?title..._Custom_Content

If not, http://www.modthesims.info/wiki.php..._3_Game_Problem will walk you through the steps to find and fix the problem.

And, if you discover that the problem is caused by one object in the inventory, you could always just decide to leave it behind when you move them, and then replace it when they arrive.

I recently had a problem where the portraits on the left side of the screen were missing after a couple of mine got married. I tried several things to bring them back, but the one thing that seemed to fix it was simply right clicking one of the sims. Not sure that would work in your situation, but it's worth trying. Of course if the entire interface disappears then I doubt right clicking will help.
