Installing Pillow on macOS Mojave - running python 3.7

Question

I'm totally new and all the stuff within Terminal is beyond me.

I mananged to get Pillow 5.3 installed on my computer, but it went into the Python 2.7 folder in Library. I've been using Python 3.7 in PyCharm as I learn.

None of the import commands are working:

import PIL
from PIL import pillow
import pillow

My system doesn't recognize any of these. Do I need to move the Pillow 5.3 folder somewhere? I must be missing a step somewhere.

Answer 1

You have to install pillow for Python 3.7, not 2.7.

pip3 install pillow

(if pip3 is available from your command line, otherwise, look where PyCharm has its Python 3.7 install).
