Error when trying to install with PyCharm

Try running with sudo

% sudo pip install tweepy                                                                                                               Password:

OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/pygments'

Be careful with the version of pip-> Ignore it because it was annoying to upgrade last time Be careful with ownership Get angry with authority

Try adding the -H option to sudo

% sudo -H pip install tweepy

OSError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted: '/tmp/pip-SMqSdl-uninstall/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Extras/lib/python/six-1.4.1-py2.7.egg-info'

The error has changed but is not resolved

/ tmp / pip-SMqSdl-uninstall has root privileges, but sudo is attached ...

It seems that you can change the installation destination by adding the --user option to pip.

% pip install tweepy --user                                                                                                             You are using pip version 7.1.0, however version 9.0.1 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command.
