Why do I get the python error saying I don't have the keyboard module when I do?

When I try to run a program that has import keyboard it gives me this error even though I installed it:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\Diana\Desktop\test file.py", line 1, in
import keyboard
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'keyboard'
Does anyone know why?

It looks like you simply don't have the module named keyboard installed for the version of python that you're running the script with. Try running python -m pip install keyboard in a terminal outside of python to install the module, and try running the script again.
Assuming this is the module that's being referenced

You might have both Python 2 and Python 3 installed on your OS, which you can easily check by running this from your terminal:
pip --version
If the output ends with Python 2.X then you probably have two concurrent versions.
This implies that pip install keyboard would have installed the package for the respective Python version (2), i.e. you must explicitly point to pip3 implementation to get the package in the expected location:
pip3 install keyboard

Pls check if you installed the module 'keyboard', If done, make sure you call the function.

No module called 'discord' found

I'm trying to make a discord bot. So I did 'pip install discord' and it installed successfully! I have added Python to PATH as well. now in the Python Shell, I typed, 'import discord'. Then I get this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module>
import discord
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'discord'
I have used 'pip install discord' again and again and it still doesn't work! My pip is also the latest version. I also uninstalled and installed python but still doesn't work! :(
Why does it not work? Please help me. Thanks!!

I think this is because it is
pip install discord.py and not
pip install discord.
If you are on Linux, try pip3 install discord.py (pip installs to python2 by default).
You can also see the official pypi project.

This should be a simple solution. A previous answer indicated to make sure that you use the correct, full module name when making the pip call to install the module, and this is imperative -- however, since you're still not seeing results there is clearly still an issue.
The first question is what is your python download? Did you install python through something like conda, or did you just install the language directly on your device without a facilitating package?
In the meantime (and especially if you don't know the answer to the above question), try this command in your terminal (not your python shell, just your command line):
pip freeze
This command is referenced from this link, in case you're curious, and should give you a list of all locally install non-default python packages. If you provide the result of this call, I am certain it will better facilitate the solving of this issue.

Me to, I got this error.
I solved it as follows:
import discord.abc

if you use linux and run the pip install command as non root but the start command as root you need to run the pip command also as root

ModuleNotFound error but module has just been installed

I'm using Windows 10, Python 3.6.4. I'm trying to use the module Pyperclip and have installed it with pip:
c:\Users\Bertie>pip install pyperclip
Requirement already satisfired: pyperclip in c:\python36\lib\site-packages (1.8.0)
But when I try to run a program which uses this module, I get this error:
c:\Users\Bertie\scraping.py test
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\Bertie\scraping.py", line 3, in <module>
import webbrowser, sys, pyperclip
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pyperclip'
How can I fix this? Thank you.

The reinstall trace shows you install the packge successflly for python36.
Check if there is more than one python in your system. Type "python" in your windows cmd console, and check the python version to see if python36 is the default one. Then explicitly use the python interpreter to start the script "python your_python_script.py".

Where is the py file? Maybe try cd-ing into the folder and run python (python3) scraping.py?
Also check that you have installed the correct interpreter and are using the correct version of python.

Maybe You Installed pyperclip in conda env or a virtualenv and you forgot to activate it ?
Because This Has Happened To Me Many Times.
Or Maybe You Have 2 Instances Of Python installed on your computer and you accidentally installed pyperclip in the other instance of python ?

Installing modules like pygal so they work in Spyder

I'm a Python beginner working with Spyder, who must pip install modules for my class; pygal, for example. When I try to install, or reinstall as an administrator, this is what I get:
C:\WINDOWS\system32>pip install pygal
Requirement already satisfied: pygal in c:\users\flora\appdata\local\packages\pythonsoftwarefoundation.python.3.8_qbz5n2kfra8p0\localcache\local-packages\python38\site-packages (2.4.0)
Yet when I try to import the module in a Spyder file, this is the message I get:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\flora\crash python\data mining\world_population2.py", line 2, in
import pygal
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pygal'
And there's no sign of it in the dependencies in Spyder. Same thing using IDLE 3.8. I had assumed that Spyder or Anaconda would automatically be able to use it. Does it have something to do with WHERE I have saved it? I have tried reinstalling Anaconda, restarting my computer, etc. No difference.
Thanks in advance for any ideas.

No idea if this will help but if you goal is to use pygal you can try using a different ide with python build in. It does not run the most current version of python by default but you can change it to the version of python you have installed.
Try using Thonny I was able to import and run some code from pygal.

ImportError: No module named pynotify. While the module is installed

So this error keeps coming back.
Everytime I try to tun the script it returns saying:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "cli.py", line 11, in <module>
import pynotify
ImportError: No module named pynotify
The strange thing is, I just installed this plugin.
I also restarted command prompt already, even the computer.
But nothing, if anyone could help me out here that'd be great!

Try this:
pip install py-notify
It worked for me.

You are most likely looking for pyinotify not pynotify. That should fix your ImportError.

Here is the solution for Ubuntu.
First install python-notify: sudo apt-get install python-notify
After that you may need to add the right paths:
import sys
sys.path.append('/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gtk-2.0')
sys.path.append('/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/')
Finally: import pynotify

first check your pipversion and your python running version
pip --version, python --version
if the pip is from python3's packages. and you python environment is running at python2.x. so abandon using your pip to install any notify , you just install python-notify

If what you install is py-notify (http://home.gna.org/py-notify/), it should be:
import notify

Check whether you were using the corresponding pip version for your version of Python. For example, if you have Python2 and Python3 installed, you may have installed pynotify for Python2, and attempting to import it from Python3, which will result in the package not being found.
Try running
pip --version
Assuming pip install is how you installed the package as well as
python --version
to ensure the version numbers are similar.

Import package 'notify' instead of 'pynotify'
import notify

This error is because, you had run the Python file (mitmf.py) with python2. But you have installed pyinotify in python3-pip. So it will only run in pip2.To install it follow the link... https://linuxize.com/post/how-to-install-pip-on-ubuntu-20.04/
