I am trying pip3 install mediapipe but I am getting an error:

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement mediapipe ERROR: No matching distribution found for mediapipe

My Python version is 3.7.9 and pip version is 20.3.1.

    What is your operating system? Do you have 32 bit python by any chance? – FlyingTeller Dec 06 '20 at 21:58
  • @FlyingTeller I am using macOS and 64 bit python – Max Dec 07 '20 at 16:01
  • It looks like there's already an issue raised on this over [github](https://github.com/google/mediapipe/issues/1405). The issue is open and unresolved as of now. – Pradeep Kumar Jan 03 '21 at 18:49
  • I had the same problem. my python was 3.8 32bit. I tried python 3.9 and It didn't work either. but with python 3.7.9 64bit and pip 20.1.1, it worked. – Amir Zahedi Jan 06 '21 at 13:55

I solved it by typing py -m pip install mediapipe instead.

  • Why does this work? Since when can you just type `py` for `python`? – Cornelius Roemer May 10 '22 at 21:16
  • `py` is the python launcher. It is normally bundled with python for windows and it is used to manage multiple python versions. The `py` command defaults to the newest version of python installed. – KetZoomer May 10 '22 at 23:17

I had the same issue trying to install MediaPipe via pip using macOs 10.13 with Python 3.7.10. I ended up looking at the "Download Files" in Mediapipe's PyPi (https://pypi.org/project/mediapipe/#files) and found out that all wheel files for macOs referred to macOs 10.15 (Catalina), so I upgraded and now the installation is correctly done.

I don't know why there's a need for that specific macOs version, nor how to change it to work on other versions, so my advice would be to just upgrade to macOs 10.15 if you are running on earlier versions.

I used conda to make a virtual environment with an earlier version of Python that is supported:

conda create --name mp_env numpy mp python=3.7.2

And then:

conda activate mp_env

You need to install the 64-bit version of Python.
