Installing PyQt4 in Mac OS X and Maya - macos

I am trying to run PyQt4 in Maya 2014 and I keep getting the error that no modules was found etc.
I am a Mac user on OS X 10.7.5 and I have tried running the installation following this link as my guide.
Unfortunately though I am able to install everything as stated, but as I am unable to get the IDLE.app from MacPorts, thus I tried checking whether the PyQt4 is installed either by terminal or through Maya itself where I typed in from PyQt4.QtGui import *
However both methods still state the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named PyQt4.QtGui
Can anyone help me through? Or do I still need to install something else just for Maya-usage?
It would seems that the python package in my machine is Python 2.7.1 as depicted from the terminal

For 2014+ you may want to use PySide, which comes with your Maya and won't need separate installation.

Python3 cannot find statsmodels.api but I can and so can my linter

I recently got into development with Python running on WSL (Ubuntu 18.04 LTS).
I followed the documentation from here and I'm able to run simple python scripts.
I started playing around with libraries that I installed using the pip3 command such as numpy and pandas and these work fine.
The problem arises when I try to use the statsmodels package.
I've installed it using pip3 install statsmodels
I can see the package in /home/username/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/statsmodels I can even see the api.py file in that directory, however, when I type import statsmodels.api as sm as recommended on the statsmodels website I get:
Console output:
username#DESKTOP-1JP4BIE:/mnt/c/users/username/dev/project/playground$ python3 statsmodels.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "statsmodels.py", line 5, in <module>
import statsmodels.api as sm
File "/mnt/c/username/chris/dev/project/playground/statsmodels.py", line 5, in <module>
import statsmodels.api as sm
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'statsmodels.api'; 'statsmodels' is not a package
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling (did not work)
I really can't see anything that differentiates this package from the others that I've installed. Does anyone have any insights?
Thanks #Vorsprung durch Technik
The issue was that my file name was statsmodels.py.
I'll remember to be more careful when naming my python files.

Unable to run Autokey Ubuntu 18.04

I am relatively new to Linux/Ubuntu (so please take it easy on me) and I am trying to install Autokey to use the text expansion functionality. I have tried installing it from the instructions on the Github page here - https://github.com/autokey/autokey#installation
However, no matter whether I follow the installation process under the Ubuntu/Mint/Debian section or the instructions to install via pip I cannot seem to get the program working.
The installation seems to be successful (running a 'which' command gives the path installed) but clicking on the icon does not launch the program.
I have also tried to install directly from Ubuntu/GNOME software manager but that also will not launch the program once installed.
I have tried installing both the GTK and QT frontends and neither will launch. I don't get an error message or anything. I have opened up the System Monitor to see if a process even appears (however briefly) and there's nothing.
Typing autokey-gtk into Terminal gives:
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/autokey/gtkapp.py:24: PyGIWarning: Gtk was imported without specifying a version first. Use gi.require_version('Gtk', '3.0') before import to ensure that the right version gets loaded.

Can anyone please help? Thank you.
I am a newbie too and installed Autokey 0.90.4, which did not work for me either. Someone suggested I try 0.95.1 because the other version is 7 years old.
I installed the new version with some acrobatics from the Autokey Github page, using the PIP method. At 1st it did not work, but after doing import setuptools it did. That might be a coincidence since it was after installation of the Ak package itself.
I know this sounds convoluted, but I am not familiar (yet?) with Linux. Anyway 0.95 works for me.
install module python-xlib and it will work, like this:
On Deb:
apt install python3-xlib
You might later need python autokey module as well:
pip install autokey

Scipy installation windows 10

I have some difficulties trying to install Scipy for Python 3.5 on a Windows 10 machine and I hope I can find some help here. So here is what I have done so far.
I have downloaded the numpy+mkl for python 3.5 and 64bit version as well as the scipy0.18.1 for the same versions, from Gohlke's website
I installed the numpy+mkl whl with:
python -m pip install numpy-1.11.2+mkl-cp35-cp35m-win_amd64.whl
all goes well.
then I install the scipy package the same way like:
python -m pip install scipy-0.18.1-cp35-cp35m-win_amd64.whl
This also completes.
However, when I try to run python afterwards I get the following error:
Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: can't initialize sys standard streams
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python35\Lib\site-packages\scipy\io\__init__.py" , line 97, in <module>
File "C:\Python35\Lib\site-packages\scipy\io\matlab\__init__.py", line 13 in <module>
File "C:\Python35\Lib\site-packages\scipy\io\matlab\mio.py", line 8 in <module>
ImportError: No module named 'numpy'
I also get a pop-up that Python has stopped working.
I have tried a different order in which I installed the packages, but all lead to the error mentioned when Scipy is installed.
I also installed did this on a windows 7 machine and there it works.
Does anybody have any idea what causes this issue?
I also had some issues. So I just installed Anaconda3 insted of python directly.

apportable : No module named argparse error on mac

i just installed apportable from here : http://www.apportable.com/users/1928
now , after installing successfully it gives this error :
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/macintosh/.apportable/SDK/bin/apportable", line 3, in
import argparse
ImportError: No module named argparse
i can understand it's import issue .. but i am not able to resolve this .. can anyone help on this !! i have tried this for many times & still same error .. what could be the possible resolution to this.
please help !
You may have an old python. You should have version 2.7+:
$ python --version
Python 2.7.2
Or old MacOS X. Apportable requires Mac OS X 10.7+.

I can't import igraph on mac 10.6

I installed igraph for python in my mac but I can't import it. First I installed C core library, then I proceeded with the instalation for python, by doing:
python setup.py build
python setup.py install
Everything seemed to work fine but I can't import igraph from python shell. Just to clear up, I'm not inside igraph source code's folder. And I got this error:
import igraph
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "build/bdist.macosx-10.3-fat/egg/igraph/__init__.py", line 30, in <module>
File "build/bdist.macosx-10.3-fat/egg/igraph/core.py", line 7, in <module>

Referenced from: /Users/*****/.python-eggs/python_igraph-0.5.4-py2.7-macosx-10.3-fat.egg-tmp/igraph/core.so
Expected in: dynamic lookup
I replaced my folder's name for *, so don't consider it.
I'm running python 2.7 over OS 10.6.7. So there's no pre-compiled version of igraph avaliable (2.5 and 2.6 only). Has this error anything to do with the python version I'm running?
If possible, how can I work this out?
I think the problem is that igraph is installed in /usr/local/lib/libigraph.dylib, but the linker cannot find it when Python tries to load the C core of the igraph module because /usr/local/lib is not on the default library path in Mac OS X. (At least I think so).
First, please check whether libigraph.dylib is really in /usr/local/lib - it should be there. After that, try this:
DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib python -m igraph.test.__init__
This should instruct the linker to look around in /usr/local/lib as well as the default places, and then run Python with the entire igraph test suite.
