There is this open issue on the tensorflow github: https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/issues/17022 https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/issues/23705 This one seems to be the main issue tracker: https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/issues/20517 In the first issue above, somebody provides a workaround for Mac, with an unofficial wheel that one can install. But that does not work for me with Keras, there is something in that version of tensorflow that is incompatible with Keras. Tensorflow and Keras only list Python 3.6 in their releases on PyPI, and tensorflow cannot be installed on Python 3.7. This is the result from trying on my mac: $ pip install tensorflow Collecting tensorflow Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement tensorflow (from versions: ) No matching distribution found for tensorflow > > > regards, > > Kenneth > >> /Jakob >> -- >> Jakob Schiøtz, professor, Ph.D. >> Department of Physics >> Technical University of Denmark >> DK-2800 Kongens Lyngby, Denmark >> http://www.fysik.dtu.dk/~schiotz/ -- Jakob Schiøtz, professor, Ph.D. Department of Physics Technical University of Denmark DK-2800 Kongens Lyngby, Denmark http://www.fysik.dtu.dk/~schiotz/
