[SOLVED] No Maintenance Tool - no python script. how to uninstall Qt from a Mac?
-
Hey there,
I tried to install Qt 4.8.3 (Creator 2.6.2) with on my Mac (10.8.2 Mountain Lion). Running projects which ran on other Macs failed to built. So, after a while I pretty fucked up everything on my system.
I have no maintenance tool anymore, and don't know why. I don't have the python script neither. Please, I am desperate; How can I uninstall Qt for a clean re-install?
I really like to work with Qt.
Thanks in advance!Rob

Hello,
How did you install Qt ?
-
Hey SGaist!
On this page, I clicked the DOWNLOADS tab, downloaded the Mac Version of 4.8
Qt libraries 4.8.4 for Mac (185 MB) and debug libraries (480 MB) and installed it.As I said (didn't know about the ###), I really messed it up, while not being able running projects. So I tried 5 then 4.8, and I was able to uninstall both again with the python script as well as the maintenance tool. But now, nothing is available anymore...
EDIT:
Even the examples aren't there anymore. -
Hello. Did you tried to have a look (via xterm) in the subfolders of /usr/ ? or use the locate command (or find) to try to find one file present in qt (e.g a source file present in qt) ?
Maybe you will find the path of your qt install by this way ?

Don't touch one ! It's for QuickTime (QT) not Qt (Yes casing is really important here)
-
Have a look in your /usr/local/ folder, maybe you will find the qt install folder (by default my qt install is there (mac os x 10.7 & qt5). If you find it there, remove the folder by using the command rm -rf yourQtFolder
and as SGaist said, be carefull with casing. And look only in /usr/local (if you used the binaries for your install as you said before, the setup floder should be there).

No, it's juste Qt creator app. you can use a soft like AppCleaner to remove it. For Qt itself, try what i suggested on my last post
