      @SGaist Thank you for your help ! I tried to install the Qt6 binaries but I had the same problems.
      Do you want me to build Qt6 from source files ?

        The support isn't there quite yet, but it's worked on.

        You can check here:
        https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-85279

        For current progress, and what you can do yourself of right now, to make it work, apparently building Qt yourself my work 🤷‍♂️

          @J-Hilk Thank you for your answer ! Unfortunately I can’t manage to build qt by myself, I think I will wait for now ...

                            This is the code in .pro. I used homebrew to install opencv4.

                            QT += core gui

                            greaterThan(QT_MAJOR_VERSION, 4): QT += widgets

                            CONFIG += arm64

                            SOURCES +=
                            main.cpp
                            opencvmain.cpp

                            HEADERS +=
                            opencvmain.h

                            FORMS +=
                            opencvmain.ui

                            INCLUDEPATH += -I/opt/homebrew/Cellar/opencv/4.5.2_4/include/opencv4
                            INCLUDEPATH += -I/opt/homebrew/Cellar/opencv/4.5.2_4/lib
                            INCLUDEPATH += -I/opt/homebrew/Cellar/opencv/4.5.2_4/bin
                            LIBS += pkg-config --cflags --libs opencv4

                            LIBS += -framework CoreFoundation
                            LIBS += -framework IOKit

                            LIBS += -L/opt/homebrew/Cellar/opencv/4.5.2_4/lib

                            -lopencv_core

                            QT_CONFIG -= no-pkg-config
                            CONFIG += link_pkgconfig
                            PKGCONFIG += opencv4

                              What issue do you mean? Qt built for x86_64?
                              There is no official M1 ARM builds of Qt yet.
                              You can either build Qt by yourself or use OpenCV x86_64 build.

                                Thanks for the replay. I have a Mac M1 and I cannot build. I get the following error.

                                If Qt does not support M1 could you please recommend a resource that I can follow to build and run opencv.
