These packages are available via the Anaconda Repository, and installing them is as easy as running “conda install tensorflow” or “conda install tensorflow-gpu” from a command line interface. One key benefit of installing TensorFlow using conda rather than pip is a result of the conda package management system. Having a basic knowledge of bash commands or command line (depends on the operating system, Mac or Windows) The following software will be installed. Anaconda; PyCharm (community edition) The following Python libraries are of interest. I have provided a link for each library’s documentation if you are interested in reading more.

Note
This tutorial provided a quick guide to install Anaconda on Mac as well as dealing with a common installation issue. A graphical install of Anaconda isn’t the only way to install Anaconda as you can Install Anaconda by a Command Line Installer, but it is the easiest. On Mac: Install into /Applications/ or /Applications/. Download and install the most recent version of Anaconda for your operating system. We assume it is installed in a directory named anaconda3. In the box that pops up, type the following line: jupyter notebook and then press enter Jupyter notebook should open in your default web browser. Method 2: Open from Anaconda Navigator: Find Anaconda Navigator on your system (e.g. In Mac, type Anaconda into the search bar and press enter). Click Launch under Jupyter Notebook.
Using Anaconda in a commercial setting? You may need to use Anaconda Commercial Edition. If you have already purchased Commercial Edition, please proceed to the Authenticating Commercial Edition section after completing your installation here.
Haven’t purchased Commercial Edition yet? Visit https://anaconda.cloud/register to get started.
- Download the Anaconda installer.
- RECOMMENDED: Verify data integrity with SHA-256.For more information on hashes, see What about cryptographic hash verification?
- Double click the installer to launch.NoteTo prevent permission errors, do not launch the installer from theFavorites folder.NoteIf you encounter issues during installation, temporarilydisable your anti-virus software during install, then re-enable it after theinstallation concludes. If you installed for all users, uninstallAnaconda and re-install it for your user only and try again.
- Click Next.
- Read the licensing terms and click “I Agree”.
- Select an install for “Just Me” unless you’re installing for all users(which requires Windows Administrator privileges) and click Next.
- Select a destination folder to install Anaconda and click the Next button. See FAQ.NoteInstall Anaconda to a directory path that does not contain spaces or unicode characters.NoteDo not install as Administrator unless admin privileges are required.
- Choose whether to add Anaconda to your PATH environment variable.We recommend not adding Anaconda to the PATH environment variable, since thiscan interfere with other software. Instead, use Anaconda software by openingAnaconda Navigator or the Anaconda Prompt from the Start Menu.
- Choose whether to register Anaconda as your default Python. Unless you planon installing and running multiple versions of Anaconda or multiple versions ofPython, accept the default and leave this box checked.
- Click the Install button. If you want to watch the packages Anaconda is installing, click Show Details.
- Click the Next button.
- Optional: To install PyCharm for Anaconda, click on the link to https://www.anaconda.com/pycharm.Or to install Anaconda without PyCharm, click the Next button.
- After a successful installation you will see the “Thanks for installing Anaconda” dialog box:
- If you wish to read more about Anaconda Cloud and howto get started with Anaconda, check the boxes “Learn more about Anaconda Cloud” and “Learnhow to get started with Anaconda”. Click the Finish button.
- Verify your installation.

Download and install Python[edit]

Anaconda For Mac Os
We're going to be installing Python using a software collection that includes Python. The collection is called Anaconda. Anaconda includes the Python programming language and a bunch of different pieces of software that are useful for data science and analysis. Although the collection includes all free software, it is put together by a commercial company called Continuum Analytics.
Note: Even if you already have a version of Python on your computer, we suggest you follow these instructions and download Anaconda. This will help ensure that you can follow along during our in-class activities, and will make it easier for mentors to help you if you get stuck on something.
Download option #1[edit]
Try to download the installer from this file which contains Anaconda and Python 3.7 for MacOS.
Download option #2[edit]
If option 1 above doesn't work for any reason, download the Python 3.7 option from Anaconda's website. If necessary, scroll down to the 'Anaconda 2019.10 for macOS Installer' section.
Installation[edit]
If you are on MacOS 10.15 (Catalina), you must follow an additional step which is noted below. If you don't, Anaconda won't work quite right! |
To install Anaconda, simply open the package and follow the prompts. You may be asked to enter your password by Package Installer.
- Make sure you download the version for Python3
- Opening the file with Package Installer will guide you through the setup process
- You may be prompted for your password
- Package Installer will install Anaconda3
Install notes[edit]
- If you get stuck during the install process, ask a neighbor or raise your hand for help. These instructions may also be helpful.
- At the end of the installer, you may be prompted if you'd like to send the installation package to the trash. Doing so won't damage the installation and will free up ~600MB of disk space on your computer.
Prompt from Package Installer asking if it is OK to trash the installation package.
Special Steps for people using Mac OS 10.15[edit]
If you are using MacOS 10.15 (Catalina) or above, you will need to configure the system to recognize Anaconda. You can find out which version of MacOS you have: you can click the Apple menu icon at the top left corner of your screen and then select the “About This Mac” command.
If the version number says 10.15 or higher it means you have a pretty new computer (congratulations on that). It also means that you will need to have to do an additional step. It might be a good idea to raise your hand and ask a mentor for help with this part.
To do so, open Terminal.app (either using Command-space or opening Applications > Utilities > Terminal.app and entering the following:
Install Anaconda Mac Os
You should end up with something like this:
Once you're done, you can quit Terminal (either with Command-Q or the menu option Terminal > Quit Terminal).
Test your Python install[edit]
To use Anaconda on MacOS, you will primarily use the Anaconda Navigator; It lets you manage the installed python tools, create custom setups, and launch tools like Jupyter.
The easiest way to launch the Anaconda Navigator is from inside the Applications folder:
![Anaconda navigator download mac Anaconda navigator download mac](/uploads/1/2/4/6/124609192/162192962.png)
Anaconda Download Mac
The navigator will start up and greet you with a list of installed and available tools:
One of the options (it's the middle option in the screenshot) should be called 'Jupyter Notebook'. Click that to open Jupyter Notebook! After a few seconds, you'll see a new tab open in your default browser. It will look something like this:
Anaconda Command Prompt
Your default browser is where you'll be working with Jupyter Notebooks.
If for some reason you don't see something in your browser, let a mentor know.
When you launched the notebook from Anaconda, you may have noticed a Terminal window popped up, like this:
You can hide it, but do not close it during the whole time when you are using the Jupyter Notebook. If you close it, your Jupyter Notebook will be closed automatically.
To close Anaconda, first go to your terminal, then, press 'CONTROL+C' keys, you will see a new line on your terminal:
Press 'y' key, then press 'RETURN' key. Now your Anaconda is closed :)
Now Anaconda is not running on your terminal. You can press the 'x' on the upper left corner of your terminal window to close the terminal as well.
Anaconda On Mac
Success! You've gotten Anaconda and Python working on your Mac!
Success![edit]
You have installed and configured Python. You can move on to the next step.
