As Qt tells you, there is no clicked() signal in QTreeView or any of its 
inherited classes. And what would you know from that signal? Only that the 
user clicked somewhere in the widget? How useless.
You are probably searching for QAbstractItemView::clicked( const QModelIndex& 
) or for QAbstractItemView::activated( const QModelIndex& )... These two have 
the advantage that they already give you the item that was clicked on, so you 
don't have to determine that yourself.

Have fun,

Arnold
