As I cannot comment due to my lack of 50 reputation, I will 'comment' in an answer.

Although you may be admin, you still have to type sudo before you do anything... To check if your account has admin privileges, type sudo bash in your terminal, and if it says myusername is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported. myusername is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported. , then you aren't an admin.

Here is a short demonstration of the above:

Or you could combine the first two steps and head into the third one, and if it raises an error when you type in sudo , then you aren't an admin.

Answer 2

Here you go! You need admin privilege to do it. Type sudo python get-pip.py and enter the admin password.

It will automatically install pip-6.1.1 for you.

Answer 3

This appears to be because the default version of Python, shipped with the OSX operating system, requires sudo permissions to run in a few places.

In general you probably shouldn't be developing with the operating system version of python, and I personally prefer never to sudo install anything that doesn't obviously need root access.

Instead of using the default version, install a user-specific Python installation with Homebrew .

brew install python

And then you get the pip command properly installed for free!
