Unable to install Tensorflow on Anaconda Environment

Question

This is the error I get when I try to install TensorFlow on Anaconda environment

I am using python 3.11.5 with this env.

(ai-env) C:\Users\ahmet>conda install -c conda-forge tensorflow
Channels:
 - conda-forge
 - defaults
Platform: win-64
Collecting package metadata (repodata.json): done
Solving environment: | warning  libmamba Added empty dependency for problem type SOLVER_RULE_UPDATE

LibMambaUnsatisfiableError: Encountered problems while solving:
  - package tensorflow-1.7.0-0 requires tensorflow-base 1.7.0, but none of the providers can be installed

Could not solve for environment specs

Pins seem to be involved in the conflict. Currently pinned specs:
 - python 3.11.* (labeled as 'pin-1')

• Search the net for this specific error but find nothing similar.

• Uninstalled anaconda and start with a fresh instance.

  Still same.

Answer 1

I had the exact same issue and solved it using:

!pip install tensorflow==2.12.0

This version supports Python 3.11. Check if it's installed properly using:

!pip3 show tensorflow
