为anaconda python2.7安装PIL

Question

I can't figure out how to install PIL on my Mac (Sierra 10.12.4) running Anaconda (conda 4.3.18) python 2.7.10. Anaconda's default python is 3.5.2, so I'm installing with pip2 .

My-MacBook-ProX:dymax thisuser$ sudo pip2 install PIL

I get identical error for sudo pip2 install pillow . I also tried with conda :

My-MacBook-ProX:dymax thisuser$ conda install pillow
Fetching package metadata ...........
Solving package specifications: .

# All requested packages already installed.
# packages in environment at /Users/thisuser/anaconda3:
#
pillow                    4.1.1                    py35_0

In Python3 I can import PIL. Python2.7 I still get No module named PIL . Grateful for assistance. Is my pip / pip2 configured incorrectly?

Answer 1

Try by giving version

 pip install pillow==6.1.0(latest)

If Doesn't work try

pip list

If not listed search location of python

which python 

Search for site-packages folder inside resultant location of 'python' (usually under lib/python3.5/site-packages) and check if PIL present or not(packages are not installing right location)
