Anaconda Import error, circular import error - python

I'm trying to use anaconda to setup an environment for jupyter notebook. It's not going well... I've got everything working without anaconda (just on the normal windows terminal). On Anaconda terminal however, whenever I try to install jupyter notebook it gives me an import error (could be circular issue it says). I also cannot open anaconda navigator through either the app or command prompt. I have followed documentation and this video. Please any help would be greatly appreciated, I am going to try uninstalling anaconda and then seeing if that gets me any results...

What is the library's name are you trying to import? I am guessing 'jupyter'
Checking your local filenames might be useful. If any files in your project involve the word that is in the import statement, that could prevent the actual jupyter library being imported.
I had the same problem, tried to import numpy and got a similar error. Turns out that I had a file called 'numpy.py' in my project directory. I renamed it and solved the problem.

Try to reset pyzmq by doing the following:
pip uninstall pyzmq
pip install pyzmq

cannot import name 'get_torch_default_device' from 'thinc.api' when loading en model with spacy [duplicate]

I got a problem I can't seem to figure out. The first time I imported Spacy into a Jupyter notebook I had no problems. It just imported it as I expected.
The second time I tried to import it (using a different notebook) I got:
ImportError: cannot import name 'prefer_gpu' from 'thinc.api' (C:\python-environments\nlp\lib\site-packages\thinc\api.py)
So I tried to restart the kernel and tried it again (thinking that might be the issue). That did not solve it. Also trying to run the same cell that imported Spacy in the first notebook also throws the error now after it went well the first time.
It sounds like you have an old version of Thinc somewhere; try uninstalling and reinstalling Thinc.
Another thing to check is if you're running in the right Python environment. Sometimes Jupyter notebooks pull in a different environment than the one you're expecting in non-obvious ways. There was a thread in spaCy discussions about this recently. You can run this command to check which Python executable is being used in the notebook and make sure it's the one you think it is:
import sys
print(sys.executable)
I had a similar issue, followed the git hub link, created a new environment, and installed all required packages, and it resolved my issue. I'm using Visual code, so I had to install other dependencies since VC uses this as a conda environment as a base for my code implementation

No module named 'pyodbc' in Spyder

I'm trying to set up a script with SQL connection, and am running into the following error:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pyodbc'
from the line:
import pyodbc
I'm using Python 3.9.2, Spyder version 4.2.3. Updated to latest Spyder version 5.0.1, no change.
Weirdly I have no trouble importing the module from the command line, it's only when I run it through Spyder that I get this issue.
Normally, from what I've read this would be a case of multiple environments, but I have yet to set up any environments so I only have one python installation.
I also have the site-packages folder properly added to path, heck I've moved the pyodbc files into their own directory and added THAT to the path.
I've copy and pasted the files into Spyder's packages directory too, but still didn't fix the issue.
The only thing I can think of is this:
which indicates that Spyder is using Python 3.7.9 as its interpreter rather than the version I actually have installed?
Any idea what the issue could be?
Thank you Ewran for your help.
When I changed the interpreter it gave me an error message to update my spyder-kernels which seems to have fixed the issue.
To summarize for others:
1). Make sure you have a path to C:\Users<User>\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\Lib\site-packages
2). Make sure you're installing the module to the correct environment
3). Make sure Spyder is using the correct interpreter, point it to the desired python.exe and update Spyder's kernels if needed.
If you are fine with the Python 3.7.9 used by Spyder, you can type
!pip install pyodbc
directly in Spyder's console to install pyodbc.
Then, the import should work.
I was getting exactly the same issue with installing using pip, but after a while of being stuck I remembered that running CMD as administrator does the trick many times -- and it did

Module installed in Anaconda, same interpreter with Spyder yet Spyder gets "ModuleNotFoundError"

I have installed the netcdf4 library through
conda install -c anaconda netcdf4
And it shows up fine on my conda environment:
However, when I try to import it in Spyder, I am getting an
"ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'netcdf4'"
I have tried the solutions here. As you can see below, both the interpreters are the same (in tools/preferences it's set as python.exe, not pythonw.exe):
Yet when I try to import the netcdf4 module, it says there is no module named this.
Any ideas what the cause could be? It's been two days of trying to get Anaconda to work and it has not been a smooth experience at all, really close on giving up on Anaconda as a whole.
Added per request, a screenshot of my entire IDE. Notice in the console I ran pip install netcdf4, where it says I already installed it. Directly below is importing the module and the error:
And how the console looks on each startup:
The docs/tutorial used stated
import netcdf4
While now it is case sensitive
import netCDF4
Such a simple fix..

Error importing numpy & graphlab after installing ipython

I have got a strange issue.
I am now using graphlab/numpy to develop a project via Pycharm 5. OS is Mac OS 10.11.5. I created a p2.7 virtual environment for the project. Programme runs well. But after I install ipython, I can no longer import graphlab and numpy correctly.
Error message:
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'core'
System keeps telling that attribute ‘core' and 'connect' are missing. But I am pretty sure that they can be found in graphlab/numpy folders, and no duplicates.
Project runs all right in terminal. Now I have to uninstall ipython. Then everything is ok again.
Please kindly help.
Please remember that console applications and GUI application do not share the same environment on OS X.
This also means that if you install a Python package from the console, this would probably not be visible to PyCharm.
Usually you need to install packages using PyCharm in order to be able to use them.
Upgrading pip itself then reinstalling worked for me
