I've got a pretty chronic problem of the latest creator stalling on OSX.
I'll hit the play button, it'll say:
10:30:17: Running steps for project winston...
10:30:17: Configuration unchanged, skipping qmake step.
10:30:17: Starting: "/usr/bin/make"

Then nothing. When I cancel the build using the red square, then it dumps a bunch of compiler output.

It goes through periods where 50% of make invocations are stalled.

I have this issue too (macOS 10.12.6 w/Qt Creator 4.6).

Usually if I just switch the editor using Option-tab it continues ok.

I also get these (or something like them) when doing "Follow symbol under
cursor" and "Rename symbol" sometimes.

If you get lock-ups of Qt Creator on macOS, please open Activity Monitor, select the Qt Creator process and trigger “Sample” from the “gear” menu. That often contains useful information about what it currently tries to do / what it is waiting for.
Of course best attached to a bug report ;)

I always provide bug reports where I think Qt/QtC need correction, but sometimes I like to check the mailing lists first for quick fixes/known issues, or and this is the big one, other people who are experiencing it but have not reported it ("me too!" situation)

:-)

It might be a good idea to get the bug creation reports dumped into the mailing lists? (Purely for collaborative effect)
