Can't get import to be recognized - jsonpickle - python

I am using PyDev via eclipse and have used easy_install to get jsonpickle. No matter what I do I can't seem to get the import to work.
What I have tried thus far:
I have removed it from easy_install.pth and deleted the egg and installed again.
Add my python lib, dll, etc folders to a PYTHONPATH system variable
Restarted eclipse
Other imports are working fine. Not sure what I am doing wrong?
EDIT:
Sorry should have included OS / Python version.
OS: Windows 7
Python: 2.7
Any suggestions greatly appreciated

OS and python version?
Please use pip. Always.
pydev seems to ignore your package. It should be in /usr/share/pythonX.Y/site-packages/jsonpickle, or, if on Windows, c:\pythonxx[...].
If using Linux, please try to find a distro package for jsonpickle.

The PIL library import fails

Being a complete begginer in python, I decided to install the python interpreter 3.4.4, and also PyDev plugin for eclipse IDE. I am also using windows 10.
I have encountered a problem regarding certain imports, namely : from PIL import Image, ImageTk, which is apparently an unresolved import.
I have looked at certain questions which were similar to my situation, but most of them gave a solution like installing packaged from the linux apt-get. Here are some topics I visited :
Uninstalling and reinstalling Pillow and pip,
Installing pillow-imaging-tk on Ubuntu,
This topic which left me very confused,
This one seemed helpful, but is on Unix OS again
So please, could someone explain to me why I am seeing this error, and how could I correct it if I absolutely want to use Eclipse, Pydev, windows 10 and Python 3.
Found the solution, here's what I did:
Set the PYTHONPATH like it is shown in this article, make sure python.exe is accessible via cmd,
Via cmd, type pip install pillow. Alternatively, you can enter the same command from Windows+R,
(Not sure if relevant step) Via eclipse, Windows->Preferences->PyDev->PythonInterpreterremove your interpreter to re-add it,
Restart eclipse.
For Python import problems in PyDev, the project web site has a page on interpreter configuration that is a good place to start. I recently had a similar problem that I solved by adding a module to the forced builtins tab.

How do I get IDLE to find NLTK?

Programming noob here. I'm on Mac OS 10.5.8. I have Python 2.7.6 and have installed NLTK. If I run Python from Terminal, I can "import nltk" with no problem. But if I open IDLE (either from Terminal or by double-clicking on the application) and try the same thing there, I get an error message, "ImportError: No module named nltk". I assume this is a path problem, but what exactly should I do?
The directory where I installed NLTK is "My Documents/Python/nltk-2.0.4". But within this there are various other directories called build, dist, etc. Which of these is the exact directory that IDLE needs to be able to find? And how do I add that directory to IDLE's path?
Supplementing the answer above, when you install python packages they will install under the default version of python you are using. Since the module imports in python 2.7.6 make sure that you aren't using the Python 3 version of IDLE.
Please go through the link given below:

HTH! Thanks!

Can not import pygst under windows 7 (32bit)

I am using windows 7 (32bit) and python 2.7.3.
For gstreamer, I installed:
GStreamer-WinBuilds-LGPL-x86-Beta04-0.10.7
GStreamer-WinBuilds-SDK-LGPL-x86-Beta04-0.10.7
However, I get the following error:
ImportError: No module named pygst
And I was confused with previous similar questions and answers, anyway I can't fix this by copy files or rename dlls.
python-gst0.10 is only in extras-devel right now. You have to add this repository to your /etc/apt/sources.list:
http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel
This should work. If it doesn't add a comment :)
OK. I tested these on win xp with python 2.7. It's absolutely OK!
Then I check again in win 7, after my installing of GStreamer. Python could not import pygsst, however as there is already PYTHONPATH for gstreamer. I just checked this enviroment variables in system variables, and I found python can import pygst ... Maybe it is the problem of WIN7, system permissions or delay? Have no idea...

Can't install pywin32..?

I tried to install pywin32 via the 32 bit python 2.6 msi installer and got this error:
I have no idea why, so I went and installed python 2.7 and tried again with the pywin32 2.7 installer and got an error that amounted to another error (Sorry for not being more specific, but python 2.7 is now gone from my computer. The error was incredibly vague and had "Error:" and then no more text after it if I recall correctly).
I can't figure out what this error means, however. I wanted to use pyinstaller but it requires pywin32, so after I couldn't install pywin32 I tried py2exe and got this error:
*** finding dlls needed ***
error: pywintypes26.dll: No such file or directory
So I'm pretty sure I need pywin32. Anyone have any ideas?
I don't know the cause, but I got the same error (only with different line numbers, maybe from a different version of pywin32), and this fix worked for me, installing on windows 7:
Extract the installer file to a directory using the free 7zip (or similar) program
Copy everything in the PLATLIB directory to C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages
Open a command prompt to the SCRIPT directory and type:
python pywin32_postinstall.py -install
You must have Python already installed (perhaps obviously) and in your windows PATH environment variable for this to work. You can also try the testall script in that PLATLIB directory (though for me, that hung). After doing this, I was able to import pywin32 modules from the Python IDLE just fine.
(Trying to run the installer in compatibility mode didn't solve this for me.)
I did the following and worked for version 2.7 (I did not try 3.0 and up, but it should work too):
Move the .exe file into the platlib (C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages)
Run as admin the .exe file and you should be Good :)
If you want to check if it worked just do: import win32api and run it.
As of when I wrote this (Feb'12), IMO Python 2.5 is the most stable version of Python on Windows. I suggest you try re-installing everything on Python 2.5. I use it on Windows 7 and I don't have any issues whatsoever

How do I handle an UnresolvedImport Eclipse (Python)

When I write import MySQLdb in Eclipse using the PyDev plugin, I get an unresolved import. However, the program runs without error. I can add an annotation to get the error to go away, but what is the right way to handle this?
How can I help Eclipse know that MySQLdb is there?
It sounds like MySQLdb is somewhere on your sys.path, but not on your Eclipse project's PYTHONPATH; in other words, Eclipse thinks you're going to get an import error at runtime because you haven't fully configured it. Google seems to say that you can alter this setting in Window->Preferences->Preferences->PyDev->Python Interpreter to include the path to your MySQLdb module.
For some help figuring out where MySQLdb might be living on your system:
Open an interactive interpreter,
import MySQLdb
If that succeeds, you can get a hint from: print MySQLdb.__file__; it may be the __init__ file in the package that you need to point the path at.
cdleary above provided the reason two years ago, but this may be easier. Basically, one reinstalls the interpreter.
Select Window - > Preferences -> PyDev -> Interpreter - Python
Select the python interpreter in the upper pane
Click on Remove
Click on Auto Config
Agree to everything.
This works on Fedora 17 using the Eclipse 4.2.0 that came with the package management.
Fixed this by doing two things:
1) Added MySQLdb egg to the PYTHONPATH under Window->Preferences->Preferences->PyDev->Python Interpreter.
C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages\MySQL_python-1.2.3c1-py2.6-win32.egg
2) Close and re-open the .py file that had the red x.
Adding the egg works, but the error remains. The solution for that error can be found by adding
##UnresolvedImport
To the import statement, as in:
import web ##UnresolvedImport
Source: http://klaith.wordpress.com/2009/06/12/pydev-unresolved-import-errors/
I once had a similar problem on Windows (never encountered this on Linux though) and I discovered that I had to include the .egg directory of my library to my PYTHONPATH.
For example my PYTHONPATH (Pydev/Interpreter - Python/Libraries) included:
C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages
and I had to add:
C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages\jinja2-2.2.1-py2.6.egg
to use jinja.
This surely works I just tried it with Pmw package. Unzip package in site-packages. Then remove python interpreter from eclipse and then add it again. Your import errors shall go away. also you may want add module to forced builtins. See How do I fix PyDev "Undefined variable from import" errors? and http://pydev.org/manual_101_interpreter.html
I had a similar issue and the following is what I did to solve my issue. I have a Windows 8 Machine, Python 2.7 installed and running my stuff through eclipse.
Some Background:
When I did an easy install it tries to install MySQL-python 1.2.5 which failed with an error: Unable to find vcvarsall.bat. I did an easy_install of pip and tried the pip install which also failed with a similar error. They both reference vcvarsall.bat which is something to do with visual studio, since I don't have visual studio on my machine, it left me looking for a different solution, which I share below.
The Solution:
Reinstall python 2.7.8 from 2.7.8 from https://www.python.org/download this will add any missing registry settings, which is required by the next install.
Install 1.2.4 from http://pypi.python.org/pypi/MySQL-python/1.2.4
After I did both of those installs, I reopened eclipse and got a prompt to update the paths of eclipse which I accepted, after that I was able to query my MySQL db.
import MySQLdb
If this code show error like this:
Unresolved import: MySQLdb
you should add D:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\MySQLdb to your sys.path.
D:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\MySQLdb is this location where you install MySQLdb in your computer disk. After this step, the error will disappear.
