Why is pip not working on Mac?

Sometimes when you are installing packages, you might face the error: pip: command not found . This error could be due to the following reasons: Pip is not installed. Pip is installed, but it is not compatible with the current environment.

How do I get-pip to work on my Mac?

To use the get-pip script to install PIP on Mac:Open the Terminal app via the Launchpad. In the Terminal, type curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py and press Enter. Allow curl time to download the script onto your Mac. Once it's done, type python3 get-pip.py and press Enter.

Can not install with pip?

One of the most common problems with running Python tools like pip is the “not on PATH” error. This means that Python cannot find the tool you're trying to run in your current directory. In most cases, you'll need to navigate to the directory in which the tool is installed before you can run the command to launch it.

1 Answers

You are running the curl (download) command under sudo, but the python process itself is running without elevated privileges.

Run it like this instead:

$ curl -O https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py
$ sudo python get-pip.py

Alternatively, use the sudo command on the python part of the pipe instead:

$ curl https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py | sudo python
