    Then you have your Qt 5.1.1 Qt Creator starting and this one can't handle 5.2.

    Try calling open with -b /Path/to/Your/5.2/Qt Creator.app

      I tried

      open tesrre.pro -b /Users/tom/Qt5.2.0/QtCreator.app

      And get:

      LSGetApplicationForInfo() failed with error -10814 while trying to determine the application with bundle identifier /Users/tom/Qt5.2.0/QtCreator.app.

          I have uninstalled all versions of Qt , and reinstalled from the latest 5.2.1

          Created a new application and tried again. Now it is asking me for glib2-development package.

          Cannot find this on homebrew and no where to compile from source. So have just installed Macports and now installed glib2-devel. seems like it just installed the same files that were already present with the homebrew port, with some documentation.

          Still not working and error saying:

          Project ERROR: glib-2.0 development package not found

            You might need to add /opt/local/lib/pkgconfig to your PKG_CONFIG_PATH

              I think the PKG_CONFIG_PATH is fine as it is now seeing glib-2.0 , but is now asking for development package.

              After installing with macports doing pkg config --list-all shows the same as before , so think the development package has not installed.
              Not really sure what I am supposed to see after installing it.
              Do you know a better way of installing?

                Do you have something like

                @export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/local/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH@

                in your .profile file ?

                  Yeah just added something similar to my .profile . It contains the following:

                  export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
                  export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH

                  Still the same. Tried launching from terminal again.

                  Funny, I have tried on a ubuntu install and it just works. Was amazed at how easy it was.

                    Did you source the file before testing ? Otherwise the changes won't take effect

                      No , I did not know about that. Just tried but the same.

                      Just found the follwing page, which has helped a bit:

                      "sing-pkg-config-with-qt-creator-qmake-on-mac-osx":http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16972066/using-pkg-config-with-qt-creator-qmake-on-mac-osx

                      Basically I have added the following to my .pro file:

                      @QT_CONFIG -= no-pkg-config@

                      So now I have :

                      @QT_CONFIG -= no-pkg-config
                      CONFIG += link_pkgconfig
                      PKGCONFIG += libgpod-1.0 taglib@

                      This however will only work if I launch the project from within terminal.
                      There are suggestions of fixes for Qt Creator , but none of them seem to work.

                        I personally always start Qt Creator from the command line to ensure that it will have the environment set by .profile

                              Thanks for the above. I done the following:

                              sudo nano /etc/launchd.conf

                              added:
                              export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH

                              then:
                              grep -E "^setenv" /etc/launchd.conf | xargs -t -L 1 launchctl

                              Now when I launch Qt creator from dock , it find the libs fine.

                              Thanks , again.
