PyCharm does not automatically recognize a sqlite3 database inside a Django project

I am following a Django tutorial. After creating the project tictactoe, I opened it using PyCharm professional
According to some PyCharm tutorials the database should be automatically recognised and should appear on the database windows. This is not the case.
According to other PyCharm tutorials I should be able to drag the db.sqlite3 file into the database windows to automatically connect to the database and this is also not working.
Could someone guide me step by step and explain how do I connect to the DB and how I visualise its content?
Thank you for your help
In order to create a db you have to run the command python manage.py migrate in your command prompt or terminal
You need to click the + button, then Data Source, and in your case, select SQLite from the dropdown. After that, in the new window, select the actual db.sqlite3 file.

PyCharm professional edition cannot support Django

I have PyCharm professional edition, and I have been trying to PyCharm and Django. However, it seems that I could not enable Django support in PyCharm. As shown in the following figure, when I try to enable Django support in the PyCharm setting, there is nothing shown for Django.
Can anyone help me identify the issue?
That's because you haven't created a project yet. You get this screen because you're still in the step before creating a project.
Create a new project
Select Django on the left column
Enter a name for your project
Select (or create on the fly) a virtualenv
Click the Create button
Now, after project has been created, you can go to Languages & Frameworks => Django and then enable the Django support by selecting your project root directory and your settings.py file.

Pycharm not recognizing Django project

I've seen similar questions but they don't solve my problem.
I have a correctly installed django project. I haven't being able to make Pycharm recognize it. I can't get file name completions (i.e static files), imports from the project apps aren't recognized and neither are urls tags, can't run the server ... How can I solve this?
The problem was that I wasn't selecting the correct folder when opening the project. I opened the whole virtualenv folder with Pycharm cause I wanted quick access to the activate file in /bin where I keep my environment variables.
The solution was to delete the .idea folder and open the specific django project folder. I thought there was a workaround to this but there wasn't. The question still remains if there is a way to add the activate file in the /bin directory of the virtualenv to the project, even if it is outside the project root.

Export/Import Django project settings in PyCharm

Actually I have project with about 20 settings (Django server, Django tests, fabric tasks). Now I want to move my environment to other computer.
Is it possible to migrate all these configurations or should I create manually one by one in new PyCharm instance?
Yes there is. What you need to do, is copy everything in your project directory, including .idea folder, and pasting it to the new place that you want to place it.
Now, all you have to do is open the directory as a project using PyCharm in your new workstation.
