    I am not 100% sure but when I check via "python --version" I get: Python 3.7.4
    I am pretty sure that I still have a version of Python 2.7.

      @Pit96 That could be the reason: you installed PySide2 in one Python version but you tries to use it with another Python version.

        I checked my Python versions again with pyenv. It says that I have system as a Python-Version (should be Python 2.7 which is shipped with MacOS) and Python 3.7.4 (marked with a * ). How can I install PySide2 for different Python Versions?

          @Pit96 On Linux pip for Python3 is called pip3. So, I guess you installed for Python2. Check whether you have pip3.

            When I type in "pip3 install pyside2" or "pip install pyside2" it always says: Requirement already satisfied. So it should be installed for both versions.

              @Pit96
              For both pip & pip3 you can go pip[3] list to list what actually is installed. I would look through that, carefully, If what it is complaining about is indeed installed, then I can only guess that where you are trying to run your code from is not using where you pip installed to, e.g. inside/outside a virtual environment? I am unsure whether message ImportError: No module named PySide2.QtWidgets is telling you PySide2 found but no QtWidgets there, or whether it means no PySide2 at all, you might play with that.

                @JonB So I followed your suggestion and also copied the code to PyCharm. When I did that it still said that it cannot find PySide2 but it asked me if I want to install it. After I did it the code worked in PyCharm. I also checked if PySide2 is installed for both Python Versions and it is. So I guess it is really a problem regarding a virtual environment. My question is now how do I know if my QT Creator App is working inside/outside a virtual environment? Thanks in Advance!

                    Old topic but same problem but it solved for me like this:

                    pip3 list and pip list both showed PySide2 as installed. In Qt/Options I noticed Python 2.7 as default. Changed this to 3.6 and then when trying to compile I was asked to install some more stuff. After that everything worked.

                      @dalilander Hi there, hey I'm having the same problem. What do you mean by Qt/Options - where do I find these options to change this to 3.7 (for me).

                      I'm working with 3.7.3 on a Windown 10 machine. Anaconda Navagator to manage packages. I'm quite new to all of this so any information would be great.

                        @gheeto Tools->Options->Python->Python 3.7.3. That's what he means to say, that didn't work for me though. I have python 3.8.2 does that make it a problem?

                          @vardaan I'm having the same problem in Qt Creator 4.11.1 and Neon 20.04. Importing works fine in Idle but doesn't in QT Creator or if run from terminal.

                              Follow the steps ( @Pit96 ) ==> open your project python and then click Projects >>Build & Run >> Run Settings >> Interpreter >> click Manage and set Python 3 or Python 2
