Ok so I dowloads QT5 from their website and it gave me a .run file. I went into terminal and

chmod u+x qt.run
./qt.run

then it said no marker found, stopped after 1.00MiB
can anyone tell me why it is doing this.

Did you post the commands exactly as you really entered them? Since there is a blank in qt.run which shouldn't be there.

cd

did you check the md5sum of the download? that error sounds like the kind of thing you'd get with an incomplete archive

I will be honest bud. I have no idea what a md5sum is

$ cd ~/Downloads
$ md5sum qt-linux-opensource-5.0.2-x86-offline.run
f4ff26e65e7229e514c72e2eaf6743a0 qt-linux-opensource-5.0.2-x86-offline.run


and compare the long string of hex digits with the value given in the (info) link on the relevant Qt download page e.g.

http://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/qt/5.0/5.0.2/qt-linux-opensource-5.0.2-x86-offline.run.mirrorlist

If they are not the same then something went wrong with the download
