I am finding to install Qt4 instead of the latest Qt5.5.
This is due to forward compatibility issues with Qt5.5 and the Medical Interaction toolkit library MITK.
I have located the download archive of Qt. But, does anyone know which version of Qt Creator is compatible with Qt4?
There are two sides of compatibility here:
The range of Qt versions you can build Qt Creator with: That's at least Qt 5.0, and possibly higher.
Qt Creator 3.2.2 is the last version that could be built with Qt 4. From Qt Creator 3.3 onwards, only Qt 5 is supported.
The range of Qt versions that you can add to Qt Creator and its kits: That's at least Qt 4.0, possibly higher but 4.7 works for sure.
So, you should use the latest Qt Creator, and simply download and build Qt 4.8 that suits your needs, and then add it to Qt Creator.

I have installed qt creator 3.5.1, QT version 5.5.1. I have found that my qt doesn't support qwebengineview. Could you explain why and how can I add this support?
It seems it could be fixed by installing libqt5webkit5-dev
Hi I have recently downloaded qt 4.7.3 for windows qt-win-opensource-4.7.3-vs2008.exe from this Link , I was using Qt Creator 3.0.1 based on Qt 5.2.1 (MSVC 2010, 32 bit) till now , but I need to build my project in Qt 4.7.3 ...the problem is I couldn't find the Qtcreator.exe in the downloaded folder , it contains all the libraries and everything except the.exe file .Is there any solution to get the Qtcreator.exe file for Qt 4.7.3 or is there any way to configure it with my Qt creator 3.0.1?
Qt 4.7.3 is quite old, back at this time it was shipped in the Nokia SDK along with the Qt version.
There is no reason why you can't add Qt 4.7.3 as a Qt version in your existing copy of Qt Creator 3.0.1 you should only need 1 copy of Qt Creator on your machine.
In QtCreator go to Tools->Options->Build&Run->Qt Versions
Click the add button and navigate to qmake for Qt 4.7.3
This should have created a kit for 4.7.3
You should now be able to go back to the projects tab for your project add the Qt 4.7.3 kit and build your project with 4.7.3
I have installed version of Qt 5.1.1, and I want to install Qt 4.8.5 because I need to use NCreport library and this library is compatible only with Qt 4.8.5 and Qt 5.1.1 MVS.
How I can install Qt 4.8.5 with exist Qt 5.1.1 to be able to use NCRrepot library?
You can install those different two Qt major versions into different paths. You need to make sure when you would like to use the Qt 4 project, you need to have the relevant qmake executable in the path before the other one, or vica versa.
If you would not like to change the path dynamically, you can always specify the absolute path to the qmake executable for the one which you would like to use during that session.
I a Qt neophyte so I apologize in advance if this question is obvious...
I just downloaded and installed the latest version of Qt Creator 5 as well as Qwt (Qt Widgets for Technical Applications) on my Windows7 machine.
Qwt.pro does not build using QT Creator on my windows machine.
It all worked fine on my Ubuntu machine using Qt Creator 4.
Is there a compatibility issue with Qwt and the newest version of Qt??
Have you installed the MinGW version Qt? If not make sure you have installed Visual Studio, which contains the MSVC compiler. To get started use the MinGW version, the MSVC compiler is faster on Windows but more complicated to set up. For testing run qmake in your Qwt directory directly from the Qt console (start menu). Also make sure you can build a simple hello world project with Qt Creator first.
I'm not seeing any Qt 5 library that will work with MingW in this page.
If I want to use Qt 5 with MingW, and develop software on Windows, what are my options?
Download QT source from that page and build it with MinGW!
