Specifically, plugin loader messages saying it can't load Help and UpdateInfo.
Details for help message:
bq. /Developer/Applications/Qt/Qt Creator.app/Contents/PlugIns/QtProject/libHelp.dylib: Cannot load library /Developer/Applications/Qt/Qt Creator.app/Contents/PlugIns/QtProject/libHelp.dylib: (dlopen(/Developer/Applications/Qt/Qt Creator.app/Contents/PlugIns/QtProject/libHelp.dylib, 5): Symbol not found: _kCFWebServicesProviderDefaultDisplayNameKey
Referenced from: /Developer/Applications/Qt/Qt Creator.app/Contents/PlugIns/QtProject/../../Frameworks/QtWebKit.framework/Versions/5/QtWebKit
Expected in: /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/Versions/A/CoreFoundation
in /Developer/Applications/Qt/Qt Creator.app/Contents/PlugIns/QtProject/../../Frameworks/QtWebKit.framework/Versions/5/QtWebKit)Details for UpdateInfo message:
bq. Plugin initialization failed: Could not determine location of maintenance tool. Please check your installation if you did not enable this plugin manually.
Regarding the help message, I'm not sure I know what it means by a symbol, but the file /Developer/Applications/Qt/Qt Creator.app/Contents/PlugIns/QtProject/libHelp.dylib is definitely present.
Any ideas what's going on here? Thanks.
EDIT: the help error message has magically gone away, but I'm still getting the UpdateInfo message.

Hi,
Same problem over here. Tried disabling the firewall but to no avail.
Got it working at work, though, no problem there... Windows 7 in both places. -

Is a problem when you are starting qt creator?
When yes, your title is perhaps a bit misleading and should be adjusted.

Yes, much BETTER ;-)
I think it fits more into "tools" then. Going to move it.

[/quote]You are trying to run the stock Qt Creator binaries on Mac OS X 10.6, which is no longer supported (you can still compile and run Qt Creator on 10.6, but our binary packages do no longer work).

The UpdateInfo plugin shouldn't be enabled for the Qt Creator-only binaries in the first place, please go to "Qt Creator > About Plugins" in Qt Creator's menu, and turn it off.

Thank you, Eike. That explains why the help error went away when I upgraded to 10.8.
Regarding the "About Plugins"...I have two entries for that in my menu. Any ideas why that is?

All entries should just work correctly though. -
