Implement solution to get stable gdal and fiona library versions on Windows

I am trying to read a shapefile using python's geopandas in vscode. I successfully installed geopandas using conda, but when I use gpd.read_file, I get the following error output:
ImportError: the 'read_file' function requires the 'fiona' package, but it is not installed or does not import correctly.
Importing fiona resulted in: DLL load failed while importing ogrext: The specified module could not be founds
I am trying to follow the following solution: ImportError: the 'read_file' function requires the 'fiona' package, but it is not installed or does not import correctly. Importing fiona resulted in:
Apparently, I was using below versions of GDAL and fiona combinations which didn't work for me.
GDAL-3.3.2-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl
Fiona-1.8.20-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl
I had to uninstall the above versions and install the below versions instead. This resolved the issue.
GDAL-3.2.3-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl
Fiona‑1.8.19‑cp38‑cp38‑win_amd64.whl
Should I uninstall gdal and fiona using pip uninstall gdal fiona and then use pip install <version> to install the working versions? Also, since the post is from Oct 2021, should I still use the mentioned versions?

Module Not found error: office365 not found

I have seen this issue with some resolutions already, but none have worked for my issue. I have pip installed the latest version of office365(v 2.2.0) to my knowledge using the command:
pip install office365-rest-client
I am trying to import using the following lines of code:
from office365.runtime.auth.authentication_context import AuthenticationContext
from office365.sharepoint.client_context import ClientContext
from office365.sharepoint.files.file import File
I receive the following error:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'office365'
Just to test it out, I uninstalled and reinstalled pandas, then successfully imported pandas into my project.

Install this
pip install Office365-REST-Python-Client
pip install office365
After that, restart your IDE and errase and write again the imports. I no have idea why this worked for me

ATTENTION - You must make the letter O lowercase in both install commands, as below. Capital O does not work.
pip install office365-REST-Python-Client
pip install office365

You also need to install the office365 library as well as office365-rest-client
pip install office365

Cannot import name 'BlockBlobService'

I got the following error:
from azure.storage.blob import BlockBlobService
ImportError: cannot import name 'BlockBlobService'
when trying to run my python project using command prompt. (The code seems to work when i execute it directly from anaconda navigator.)
I am using Python 3.6.4 for Anaconda. Running pip freeze gives me the following:
azure-nspkg==2.0.0
azure-storage-blob==1.1.0
azure-storage-common==1.1.0
azure-storage-nspkg==3.0.0
azurepython3==1.7.7

There is no need to install the entire azure package.
I believe you are using the new azure-storage-blob library, but since BlockBlobService is from the old azure-storage library, to continue using it, you need to pip uninstall azure-storage-blob if you have installed the new library by accident, and then pip install azure-storage to install the old library.
If you would like to use the new library or cannot do the above, feel free to refer to my answer here which details the context and full instructions of using either the new azure-storage-blob library or the old azure-storage library.

using python faker library but have import error

I had this line in my code from faker import Factoryand I had the error ImportError: no module named faker. So I looked up on Stack Overflow and pip installed fake-factory. It says installation successful but then when I ran the code again it gives me another import error:
ImportError: The ``fake-factory`` package is now called ``Faker``.
Please update your requirements.
What am I missing here?

I had the same problem.
As the ImportError implies, you need to install Faker for this.
Move the directory in which your python library is installed and try this..
First uninstall fake-factory (I use pip) pip uninstall fake-factory
Then check if it is uninstalled using pip freeze and it should not be there
Then, proceed with installing Faker by pip install Faker
Now, try running that code again, it should work. Hope this helps :)

For me, It was working when I run pip uninstall fake-factory.

How to import Azure BlobService in python?

We are able to import azure.storage, but not access the BlobService attribute
The documentation says to use the following import statement:
from azure.storage import BlobService
But that get's the following error:
ImportError: cannot import name BlobService
We tried the following:
import azure.storage
...
foo = azure.storage.BlobService(...)
But that received the following error:
AttributeError: ‘module’ object has no attribute ‘BlobService’
We also tried all of the above with "azure.storage.blob" instead of "azure.storage"
We tried updating azure-storage package but it is up to date (version 0.30.0)
We also tried uninstalling azure-storage and installing the entire azure package, but we got the same results. We tried installing them with both pip and conda, but same results both times.
I am aware that the output suggests that this version of azure.storage has no BlobService attribute, but the documentation clearly states to import from there.
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/machine-learning-data-science-create-features-blob/

If you want to use BlobService, you could install package azure.storage 0.20.0, there is BlobService in that version. In the latest azure.storage 0.30.0 , BlobSrvice is split into BlockBlobService, AppendBlobService, PageBlobService object, you could use BlockBlobService replace BlobService.

It's possible the library has changed since that tutorial was published, but...
I just tried this a few moments ago, successfully:
from azure.storage.blob import BlockBlobService
blob_service = BlockBlobService(account_name="...",account_key="...")
And I installed Azure storage locally via:
pip install azure-storage
I was able to test this by downloading an object from storage:
blob_service.get_blob_to_path("containername","blobname","localfilename")
Note: You could import PageBlobService in similar fashion, but you might not find that too valuable, since page blobs are primarily for vhd's.

I had the same issue after using pip to install the azure package and, as the chosen answer suggests, this can be fixed by installing azure.storage 0.33.0.
However, if you're using pip, you might need to use the "--upgrade" option for it to install properly (this was my experience):
pip install azure-storage --upgrade

I had version 1.0.3 installed (which includes azure.storage version 0.20) on Ubuntu server 16.04 LTS and pip only reinstalled version 0.20 of azure.storage when I uninstalled and reinstalled the azure package. This was according to the pypi page for the azure package v. 2.0.0rc6 which recommends that to upgrade from 1.0.3 to version 2 you should do
sudo pip3 uninstall azure
sudo pip3 install azure
pypi/azure
Instead, this worked for me,
sudo pip3 uninstall azure
sudo pip3 install azure==2.0.0rc6
