I was trying to install tensorflow, but it said it was already installed in anaconda, and I haven't been using anaconda navigator at all. I had installed anaconda a while ago, but I deleted it a while ago so wasn't sure why it was still there, guess I didn't delete it correctly. So I uninstalled it, and my entire Documents was gone on my computer. My theory is that the whole time I was in the anaconda virtualenv and didn't realize, so when I uninstalled it and all of it's dependencies it deleted my whole file system. Does anyone know how I could recover it?
Please explain how to fix this as you would explain to a 6month old child.
I tried redownloading anaconda hoping it would come back but it didn't. I don't mind using anaconda from here on forward but mainly just want my files back.

I have problems installing packages in the Anaconda Navigator. When I install a single package, for example, the requests package (which was marked as updateable), the window “Update Packages / The following packages will be modified:” pops up, but no packages are listed. The list is blank and nothing happens. This also happens, when I try to update another package. The window stays blank and the only thing I can do is cancel the update process (close the window).
I also tried to update the whole Anaconda installation via conda update anaconda. This also seems not to work: “Solving environment” shows up for more than an hour. Even if I reboot my computer (it’s a Dell Latitude Notebook and I have Windows 10 Enterprise installed). I have only base environment.
What could be the problem and what would be an appropriate solution?
I had to update my spyder to version 4.1.1 so I updated Spyder to that specific version.
After updating and rebooting the spyder in my anaconda navigator would not start
Then I opened anaconda promopt and typed the commander spyder --reset which resetted
Then it wouldnt restart without an enormous page long of error. I rebooted my computer again.
Now I can open Spyder 4.1.1. but my import matplotlib as plt command won't import the desired library.
I checked in my current enviroment whether the matplotlib was present (It was gone for some odd reason). so I tried installing that package using the navigator (Tab "Enviroments" and then looking for it with the fuzzy search )
When I hit install, I can see in the bottom of the navigator that it is "installing" but then I get an error message stating: Multiple Errors Encountered
When I press "Learn more" it directs me to another website
I am very lost at the moment, it shouldnt be that hard to update spyder to a newer version?
Would anybody be able to help me out?
A small update: I have fully removed my python/anaconda enviroment and reinstalled it from a blank state. This gave me the solution. An 4 hour-ish struggle has come to an end. I do am curious what steps I could have taken in this ordeal without not having to fully reinstall Anaconda.
I recently upgraded to MacOS Catalina to take advantage of various new features/improvements. Soon after installation, I noticed that a question grey mark appeared over the Anaconda icon in my applications. Additionally, my Anaconda files have seemingly been migrated to the "Relocated Items" folder now on my desktop.
I am not sure exactly how to deal with this. I have tried clicking the Anaconda icon with the question mark to launch it, but this fails. I have also attempted locating my Jupyter notebooks in the relocated items file but have not been able to do so successfully.
My question is what do I need to do to fix this problem to restore normal functionality back? Do I need to reinstall Anaconda? Will this new installation have my old Jupyter notebooks?
From a little reading online I have found that Apple says that no files should be deleted; therefore, in theory, there should be no loss of data from the upgrade. I am just not sure how I can restore access to these Jupyter notebooks.
Not sure if anyone else has experienced a similar problem. Any help or general guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Answer: As I just found out, Anaconda rolled out a new update to address this issue. I went to their website here and just downloaded a fresh installation of the latest version of Anaconda. This worked great and completely fixed the issue. I can now access all of my pervious Jupyter notebooks.
How do I get really rid of postgres.app and related DBs & Users on yosemite?
I uninstalled completely, also related libraries.
After reinstalling the postgres.app 9.4.2.0the users, templates, tables are still there?!
Background:
I totally messed up and need to start the DB and Users from scratch.
But after re-installing postgres.app I still do see my messed up templates and schema?!
Ideas?
Found a "solution"
Since I messed up with brew and a direct install afterwards, brew also removed some relevant things... (as always). I re-installed with brew and will check my paths later, for now its working and rails stopped screwing things up.
Have been running Python 2.7.2 for several months, was using the 32-bit version on my 64-bit computer.
Today ran the installer for 2.7.3, 64-bit. Now I cannot get idle to start. I see answers here for Python in program files, I am running Win7, and I believe the correct location for this machine is in C:\, not in program files. At least that is where I had 2.7.2 and it worked.
So trying
C:\Python27\Lib\idlelib\idle.py
or
C:\Python27\Lib\idlelib\idle.pyw
neither of those would open Idle. With the .py one a console window flashes open for a split second and disappears. On the .pyw one, nothing at all happens as far as I can see. And the pyw one says right on the screen in File Type: "no console"
The old shortcut in the Start menu, under properties says 'target: python 2.7.2', but I don't see a way to change the target.
Also tried opening from Powershell, command line, Python command line, run. None of those worked.
When I downloaded 2.7.3, it said it was overwriting the files in Python27.
Now uninstall offers two programs to uninstall: 2.7.3 and 2.7.2 , but as far as I can tell there is a single Python program on disk and that one thinks it is 2.7.3. I started to uninstall and try a fresh install, but thought I'd ask first rather than risk further screwing up my machine. Thanks in advance for any help. I did read and try to use all the answers in similar questions here on the site.
I ran in to this today. Basically there was already an older version installed and installing over it (I think it was 2.7.2) with 2.7.3 64 bit broke it bad.
At first the CLI python would work but IDLE refused to launch without even an error. Uninstalling/reinstalling did nothing several times, and the problems got weirder as it couldn't find the msi's it had just downloaded, etc. Then I noticed that it wasn't deleting everything in the Python27 folder.
Manually deleting the folder wasn't enough and I found that it was storing another folder under App Data\Roaming (Windows 7). Removing this one finally allowed the re-installation to work (and show up as a newly installed program instead of acting like it had always been there by not highlighting it).
I was about to give up on the 64 bit version and try the 32 but it seems like the Python uninstaller/installer aren't cleaning everything up properly file wise (if it were registry entries I'd still be digging).
