Hi freddy311082,

It's happened because the macdeployqt tool has a bug with frameworks. If you try to open you app bundle and try to watch the frameworks list you don't find any Info.plist files in frameworks folders. That's why others mac can't load your app.
Also you need Apple Developer certificates. You must have two certificate:

3rd Party Mac Developer Application: <developer name> needs for certification of your application.
3rd Party Mac Developer Installer: <developer name> needs for create package file and then send it to Apple Mac App Store.

I've started the application to create the correct bundle but still have a few problem. For more information see "this thread.":http://qt-project.org/forums/viewthread/48391/

Hi shav... thank for answer and for your contribution to the Qt community my friend.

1.- I have some problems with the application. I font have any certificates from Mac, so, the lineEdit for each certificate is not enabled
2.- I have think that I don't need to add my QML folder because is in my resource... it's that true ??

well bro, the application keep running after I click the Deploy button and never finish...

best regards

Sorry, the application still in development so you can have some bugs :).

In your case you not need to set certificates. All you need to select you application bundle path, QML files (if your app using plugins of QML) and path to your Qt install folder. The path to your Qt folder must looks like:
@
<full_path_to_Qt_root_folder>/5.3/clang_64
@

Thats it!

P.S. Application needs a few time. Please watch to spinner on the bottom left of app screen.

Sorry, I've found the bug.

The application finished job! Try your app on Mac which doesn't has Qt. The bug is application doesn't sent finished signal to GUI thats why you see spinner.

I've fixed this bug and commit new version to repo and my site. If you want please use "git repo"https://github.com/dshav/qtappmacdeploy: to get new build.

If you found any issues please post it to "thread":http://qt-project.org/forums/viewthread/48391.
