I want to install Tensorflow following this instructions. .
But when I try this code on terminal, it returns an error.
$ sudo pip3 install --upgrade $TF_BINARY_URL
sudo: pip3: command not found
So I installed Homebrew and tried to uninstall and reinstall pip-3, but didn't work.
MakotonoMacBook-ea:~ makotomiyazaki$ brew uninstall python3-pip
Error: No such keg: /usr/local/Cellar/python3-pip
MakotonoMacBook-ea:~ makotomiyazaki$ brew install python3-pip
Error: No available formula with the name "python3-pip"
==> Searching for a previously deleted formula...
Warning: homebrew/core is shallow clone. To get complete history run:
git -C "$(brew --repo homebrew/core)" fetch --unshallow
What should I do for getting pip3? My OS is macOS High Sierra, and I have python 3.6.2 already installed.
EDIT: I tried
python3 -m pip
and what's returned was this.
The directory '/Users/makotomiyazaki/Library/Caches/pip/http' or its
parent directory is not owned by the current user and the cache has
been disabled. Please check the permissions and owner of that
directory. If executing pip with sudo, you may want sudo's -H flag.

You must give at least one requirement to install (see "pip help
install")
I also tried which pip3, but just I don't know if it worked...
MakotonoMacBook-ea:~ makotomiyazaki$ sudo which pip3 install --upgrade $TF_BINARY_URL
/usr/bin/install

You would need to install pip3.
On Linux, the command would be: sudo apt install python3-pip
On Mac, using brew, first brew install python3
Then brew postinstall python3
Try calling pip3 -V to see if it worked.
I had this issue and I fixed it using the following steps You need to completely uninstall python3-pip using:
sudo apt-get --purge autoremove python3-pip
Then resintall the package with:
sudo apt install python3-pip
To confirm that everything works, run:
pip3 -V
After this you can now use pip3 to manage any python package of your interest. Eg
pip3 install NumPy
Writing the whole path/directory eg. (for windows) C:\Programs\Python\Python36-32\Scripts\pip3.exe install mypackage. This worked well for me when I had trouble with pip.
its possible if you already have a python installed (pip) you could do a upgrade on mac by
brew upgrade python
Try this if other methods do not work:
- brew install python3
- brew link --overwrite python
- brew postinstall python3
In my case, although python3-pip was already installed, it didn't recognize pip3. After reinstalling with
sudo yum reinstall python3-pip
it worked fine and recognized pip3 commands.
After yum install python3-pip, check the name of the installed binary. e.g.
ll /usr/bin/pip*
On my CentOS 7, it is named as pip-3 instead of pip3.
