    I recently installed qt 5.11 on my MacBook Air with MacOS high Sierra 10.13 and Xcode 10.

    I’m used to write c/c++ codes on visual studio for windows and several Swift-written iOS apps on Xcode,however I’ve never used qt for creating visual apps on my Mac.

    I created a default widget application (for Mac) with no more code than it’s generated by the qt creator. When I try to compile it, I receive two errors: -framework not found Qtwidgets -linker command failed with exit 1

    I think that qtcreator doesn’t find the path of the qtwidgets but I have no idea how include this path.

    Did anyone have this same problem and how I could be solved it?

    Thanks

    @BorjaFrade Did you install Qt?
    Did you check your Kit in QtCreator (are there any warnings/errors?)?

      In addition what @jsulm requested, can you show the configuration in QtCreator->Preferences->Build & Run. Look for tabs Kits & Qt Versions. Do you see any errors there like red mark ?

        @jsulm thanks for the answer.

        Yes, I installed the 5.11.2 Qt version last weekend.

        I attach a screenshot with the warnings after trying compiling the default widget project.

          Hi @dheerendra,

          this is my config. Do you see anything wrong and weird? I didn't change anything, it's default config.

            weird & confused as well :). From where did you get the Qt Creator ? I'm not seeing the Qt Versions, Kits, Compilers tabs at all. Do you have old Qt version also on your box ?

              Hi @dheerendra , I download the web installer from this site https://www.qt.io/download-thank-you?os=macos

              I completely erased my ssd last weekend and installed Qt creator. Should I delete and reinstall Qt?

              thanks!

                What you have tried is online installer. It should not make any difference. You can try downloading off-line installer and try ?

                  I reinstalled Qt and it compiles now. Maybe I didn't install any libraries:)
                  Thanks

                    Hi and welcome to devnet,

                    Based on what you wrote, it looks like, indeed, you installed only Qt Creator which has also its own separate installer.

                    In any case, happy coding !

                      hmmm Common mistake. Qt Creator is not Qt. Now you can move the case to SOLVED.
