I want to make my project look as Mac themed. Is there any library to make it Mac styled. PS: i don't own a Mac, so i cant use Macstyle n other Mac based libraries. Kindly help in making my app have a Mac feel.

Yes, it is possible. You have to implement it yourself. You'll need to implement your own QStyle that looks and acts like the mac style without running on a Mac. This would be best done on a Mac, porting the existing style to use progressively less and less support from the native styling. Otherwise it'd be a huge undertaking - just look at how big the Mac style is - ~7k lines, and it still uses Apple's APIs to draw all the elements!

The biggest problem I see is that you cannot reuse Apple's visuals and designs. You need to consult a lawyer to figure out how close to OS X look you can get.
