    Hi,

    Did you take a look at the "Mac deployment guide":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtdoc/deployment-mac.html ?

    It shows the different steps you need to take as well as the use of macdeployqt to get your bundle ready

    Hope it helps

        That's strange, what version of Qt did you install ?

            I tried to uninstall, reboot, reinstall it in a different path like /Developper/Tools (yeah a windows guy) and it does not work very much. Even if i create a simple project using qt creator, it compile fine and then crashes with:
            "dyld: Library not loaded: /Users/bld.qt/bamboo-agent-home/xml-data/build-dir/DQTC-LGPLRELEASEBUILD510-OSX106/PADDING/lib/QtWidgets.framework/Versions/5/QtWidgets"

            nobody encountered this pb ?? ;(

            next step is rebuilding with gcc...

              It looks like there's something wrong with the id in the frameworks. You could try to change them to the path where you installed them

                  You should rather run macdeployqt then, it will also copy the needed plugins in your bundle.

                  Just wondering, when does it crash ? When you run it from QtCreator or by doubling clicking on it ?

                    both, it make things easier ;)

                    and even macdeployqt had the problems with the library ids, and when i did fixed that it gave me a lot of errors coming from both my libraries and Qt ones

                      I've reread your first post, did you check that all your files/libs where build int 64bit ?

                          Using the file command

                          Indeed it should be... By the way, which OS X version are you running ?

                            Mac OS X 10.8.5 with XCode 4.8, not the recent 5.0 (if I could dodge some problems I'm happy... )
