Python 3.3, PyCharm, pyQT5 ... not getting along

Coding

Hi,

I am having some issues for using PyQT5 with my Python 3.3 in my PyCHarm IDE.

Downloaded and run the .exe found here :
http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/software/pyqt/download5

installing normally, the same way as my Pillow for instance (which is running with my Pycharm).

aaaand, that’s its.

from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGui, QtWidgets

error :

       from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGui, QtWidgets
ImportError: No module named 'PyQt5'

PyCharm give you also the opportunity to directly dowload and install modules from a list…
…which isnt working for PyQT5 :

 Install packages failed: Error occurred when installing package PyQt5. Details...

I can see on the net many people have issues with this pyQT5 but I can’t find a proper answer, in English.

Would someone have an idea about what’s going on ?

Thanks
Bloby

I ran into some similar issues trying to use PIL with Maya 2014, and it turned out the problem was that the PIL I downloaded was compiled against VS2008 (which python 2.7 is compiled against), but mayaPy in 2014 was compiled with VS2010, so PIL needed to be recompiled with VS2010.

Look into what versions of VS Python 3.3 and PyQt5 are compiled against, maybe?

Thanks! Will try that asap.
