# Solution 1
If you have [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/) installed, and you installed QT5 from there, uninstall Homebrew QT5 using this command:
### Solution
If you have [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/) installed and you installed qt5 from there, you have to set up your $PATH correctly before running cmake.
```bash
brew uninstall qt5
To do this, executed:
```
export PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/qt@5/bin:$PATH"
```
Then, download the offline installer from [qt.io/offline-installers](https://www.qt.io/offline-installers), run the installer inside the DMG file and log in or sign up to/for a `QT Account`.
On the `Installation Folder` step, select your home folder.
![Your local Home Directory](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/69256931/159339892-cdf065b6-3f6f-48ac-848f-071dc853e376.png)
Then, on the `Select Components` page, expand the `Qt x.x.x` section and check the box next to `macOS`.
![Box selection](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/69256931/159340196-6a405d7e-8f88-4d7f-b06f-1ae40f39a2a7.png)
After that, click `Next`, agree to the license(s), click `Next` again then finally, after all that time...
Click `Install`.
After it has finished installing, follow these steps:
Export your Qt5_DIR to the folder in your Qt installation with Qt5Config.cmake in it. In this case, it should be:
```bash
export Qt5_DIR=~/Qtx.x.x
```
(Replacing the `x`'s with the version numbers)
Append the Qt5_DIR to your PATH with `export PATH=$PATH:$Qt5_DIR`
And then...
`echo "export Qt5_DIR=$Qt5_DIR" >> ~/.bash_profile`
`echo 'export PATH=$PATH:$Qt5_DIR' >> ~/.bash_profile`
Now, we can build with CMake (make sure to `cd` into the Dolphin source folder!):
```bash
mkdir -p build
cd build
cmake ..
make
```
You can verify whether or not this is the correct path by executing `brew info qt@5` and reading the output.
