I am facing the same issue. It is now 2023 and it seems the same problem is still there.
What's going on? Is it a licensing issue? or a Maintanence tool issue?

Please help me download Qt libraries.
Thank you,

The 10-day Trial is not working either. I just went through the registration again but when I open the Maintenance tool it says that there is "no valid commercial license available in your Qt Account for this host platform". I am using Windows 10 in a Mac machine (bootcamp). May that be the cause of the problem?

Is there any way I can download and try Qt? It is a bit frustrating that i can not even manage to download it...

Thank you,

Hi,

It seems there's a mirroring issue these past days as several people have asked questions related to that kind of problem. Did you try to change the mirror ?

@SGaist
I have tried the mirrors listed here:
https://wiki.qt.io/Online_Installer_4.x#Selecting_a_mirror_for_opensource

with no luck. Isn't it a license issue?

SGaist

@wasawi your original issue seemed to be mirror related. As for the other one, since your licence expired, you can continue with the Open Source version of Qt.

@SGaist Thank you.
It was a license issue.
