Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement cv2

Question

Obviously, I'm new to these problems, but I have a weird problem:

I'm using MacOS and I'm using Mac Terminal.
I installed opencv and even I saw its version and I was able to import cv2, but I wonder why I'm not able to install cv2 in pycharm?

I tried, but pycharm gives me this error:

(Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement cv2 (from versions:
No matching distribution found for cv2)

and it also says

you are using pip version 10.0.1 however version 18.0 is available

It's really ridiculous, because I updated pip to version 18, but apparently pycharm doesn't understand...

Does anyone know how to fix these errors?

Answer 1

try installing opencv-python instead of cv2, I hope it works.
