      I just tried to install Qt 5.0.1 (complete) under Mac OS X 10.6.8. Some problems:

      1. The download says it's Qt 5.0.1, but the installer says it's Qt 5.0.0.

      2. I get the following error when running the installer. I clicked "Ignore" and continued.

      Error while relocating Qt: Command install_name_tool failed.
      Arguments: -change /Users/bld.qt/bamboo-agent-home/xml-data/build-dir/DQTC-RELEASE5LGPL-OSX106/PADDING/lib/QtQuick.framework/Versions/5/QtQuick /Users/bkovitz/opt/Qt5.0.0/5.0.0/clang_64/lib/QtQuick.framework/Versions/5/QtQuick /Users/bkovitz/opt/Qt5.0.0/5.0.0/clang_64/qml/QtWebKit/libqmlwebkitplugin_debug.dylib
      Output:

      1. When I start Qt Creator, it says that the Help plugin has an error and can't be installed, with this error message:

      /Users/bkovitz/opt/Qt5.0.0/Qt Creator.app/Contents/PlugIns/QtProject/libHelp.dylib: Cannot load library /Users/bkovitz/opt/Qt5.0.0/Qt Creator.app/Contents/PlugIns/QtProject/libHelp.dylib: (dlopen(/Users/bkovitz/opt/Qt5.0.0/Qt Creator.app/Contents/PlugIns/QtProject/libHelp.dylib, 5): Symbol not found: _kCFWebServicesProviderDefaultDisplayNameKey
      Referenced from: /Users/bkovitz/opt/Qt5.0.0/Qt Creator.app/Contents/PlugIns/QtProject/../../Frameworks/QtWebKit.framework/Versions/5/QtWebKit
      Expected in: /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/Versions/A/CoreFoundation
      in /Users/bkovitz/opt/Qt5.0.0/Qt Creator.app/Contents/PlugIns/QtProject/../../Frameworks/QtWebKit.framework/Versions/5/QtWebKit)

      1. In Qt Creator, I went to Tutorials and clicked "Building and Running an Example Application". This brought up some icons, or at least an image depicting a few icons. The mouse cursor turns into a pointing hand when I mouse over it, suggesting that clicking it should do something. But when I click it, there is no response.

      What do you recommend? I am new to Qt, and figured I'd get started with the current version. Would I be wise to start with Qt 4.8?

        This is a known issue; see http://qt-project.org/wiki/Qt500KnownIssues. If you want to use Qt 5 on OS X 10.6 you'll have to compile it from source.

        If you're new to Qt I would personally recommend starting with Qt 4.8 as there are a lot of bugs in the 5.x series that will need to be ironed out over the next few patch releases, while 4.8 is quite stable. Have fun learning Qt!
