Thank you for the information Paul and Felix. I have followed your advice and installed a package manager, pip. However, running: sudo pip install matplotlib did not work. Instead, the key was: sudo pip install git+ https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib.git#egg=matplotlib-dev worked well,

The dmg you are referring to appears to install to /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages (The main library, not the one for in our user directory). Most likely, this directory is not in pythons search path. Therefore, python can't find any modules install

A quick but not necessarily accurate answer: Don't use Python 2.6. Use Python 2.5. I don't think matplotlib has been 'certified' for 2.6 yet. I suggest (1) uninstall Python 2.6 and numpy for 2.6. (2) Install Python 2.5 and numpy for 2.5 (3) Install matplotlib for 2.5 Constantine 0
