    Because developing/testing directly on a device requires that subscription, but the emulator not.

      @SGaist

      So to install Pyqt you have to have a developers subscription even if you aren't doing it commercially?

        AFAIK, as soon as you want to run your application on your device, yes but again, it's an Apple constraint and it doesn't have anything to do with the framework your might be using.

          Ah kk, so the only way to get PyQt would be to subscribe to the apple developers program and then run the same command. Do you know of any work arounds? I just want to have a play and learn some GUI programming with python, not do any actual development.

            Then why iOS and not OS X ? Otherwise, use the simulator

              Theres no reason, I just didnt realise there was a choice. So how would I install PyQt for OS X development?

                Just replace the iOS qmake by the one for OS X and you should be good to go

                  Sorry I am aware that I am being really dim and these are probably very obvious questions but how do I replace the qmake, do you mean the qmake in the /Users/paulbaranowski1/Qt/5.4/ios/bin/qmake path? Do I need to redownload a Qt for OS X or are all the libraries etc the same so it doesnt matter?

                    Just change the path to the OS X version, if you installed Qt using the online installer and didn't select the OS X version, then just run the manager and add it. Otherwise, if you used the offline installer you should already have it.

                    You can use find /Users/paulbaranowski1/Qt/5.4 -name "qmake"to find all installed qmake

                      So I hadn't downloaded the OS X version I think, so I decided to just start again and install Qt from the beginning. I am in the Qt setup wizard and when selecting the components my options under Qt5.4 are clang-64bit, various androids and iOS. Where do I select the OS X version?

                          So that seemed to work other than I got the error:

                          Generating the C++ source for the QtCore module...
                          Error: Unable to create the C++ code.

                          Do you have any idea why this is occurring? Again I apologise, I realise this is like when Im trying to get my mum to install word.

                              I thought that may be an issue but the output includes:

                              SIP 4.16.7 is being used.
                              The sip executable is
                              /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/sip.

                              So I can only assume it has found it

                                  Was doing that as you replied, so things that seem a bit wierd are:

                                  clang: error: no such file or directory: 'Drive/Personal/Code/PyQT/PyQt-gpl-5.4.1"'

                                  Project ERROR: Unknown module(s) in QT: winextras

                                  those are all the errors I can find

                                    Since you tested with the iOS version before, did you restart from a clean source tree ?

                                      I reinstalled from the online installer so its where it should be by default. Ive just reallised the no such file or directory is probably because I have the PyQt in a google drive folder with a space, ill move it out of there and make sure there are no spaces in teh path names

                                        @SGaist I think its installed! It all seemed to work perfectly, I will try and run a simple PyQt app tomorrow but I think its working! Thank you so much for your help, I really appreciate it, I would have got nowhere
