"pip install mediapipe" does not work

[kim-jason]

System information:

• OS Platform and Distribution (e.g., Linux Ubuntu 16.04): macOS Big Sur Version 11.0.1
• Bazel version: Bazel 3.7.2-homebrew
• Python version: 3.9.0

Describe the problem: I've followed all the instructions on how to install mediapipe from the official website but have been unsuccessful. "pip install mediapipe" and "pip3 install mediapipe" unfortunately returns the errors of "ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement mediapipe" and "ERROR: No matching distribution found for mediapipe".

I'm trying to run the sample videocamera code for mediapipe poses and my code runs into the error when running the line "mp_drawing = mp.solutions.drawing_utils", as the Terminal returns the error of "AttributeError: module 'mediapipe' has no attribute 'solutions'". I've repeated all the steps found at https://google.github.io/mediapipe/getting_started/python.html and https://google.github.io/mediapipe/getting_started/install but haven't been able to successfully import mediapipe.

The Hello World test with "bazel run --copt -DMESA_EGL_NO_X11_HEADERS --copt -DEGL_NO_X11 \ mediapipe/examples/desktop/hello_world:hello_world" successfully prints out "Hello World!" in my Terminal.

Is there a way to make the "pip install mediapipe" step to run properly? Thank you.

MediaPipe supports Python 3.6 to 3.8. You have Python 3.9, which is not supported yet. You can install Python 3.8 and run MediaPipe in a venv.

Thank you so much for your help! I installed Python 3.7.9 and now MediaPipe works perfectly. I appreciate the quick feedback and quick fix.

As we mentioned in troubleshooting.md, mediapipe python supports macOS 10.15+. Your macbookpro may not meet this system requirement.

Thank you man. I was stuck on this for few hours now. This worked like a magic :D

MediaPipe supports Python 3.6 to 3.8. You have Python 3.9, which is not supported yet. You can install Python 3.8 and run MediaPipe in a venv.

I have already installed py 3.7 but I still can't use "pip install mediapipe"

[namhyeop]

I solved this problem. ERROR: Could not find that statement the requirement mediape (from versions: none) error. It's a mac m1x pro environment.

How to solve 1.Intel python 3.7.8rc1 download 2.State of python the use of 3.7.8rc1 on the shell being used for terminal(i emprasized intel python 3.7.8rc1)

If you want to see how I solved it, check the blog link below. https://hyeophyeop.tistory.com/132 Since it is writtten in Korean, you hate translate it into English

Hİ, I could set up cvzone and mediapipe in anaconda, but when I import libraries, I still see 'no module named 'mediapipe'' and 'no module named 'cvzone''. Then I installed their libraries, again I tried but they already installed and they aren't installed again. I tried again and it doesn't change. CAn you help me?

1. Downgrade the protobuf package to 3.20.x or lower.
2. Set PROTOCOL_BUFFERS_PYTHON_IMPLEMENTATION=python (but this will use pure-Python parsing and will be much slower).

Pls, help me. Although I tried many versions it is still 1 traceback.

Yes, I get it. Thank you for care me. But after that I used Jupyter and it's worked so smooth.
