  • Actually the problem is solved now. Before I tried to update `numpy` using the command `conda install -f numpy`. Now I uninstall `numpy` using `conda uninstall numpy` then reinstall normally `conda install numpy`. This time it said that wants update other related packages. After that it works fine. – Bekdaulet Shukirgaliyev Oct 31 '15 at 12:10
  • So I think, if one cannot `import seaborn` after installing `anaconda`, re-installing `scipy` and `numpy` could help. Also rebooting the machine, maybe... – Bekdaulet Shukirgaliyev Oct 31 '15 at 12:14
  • I had the same problem. You need to install the package directly into iPython, while you're running a notebook. – Chef1075 Jan 25 '16 at 00:12

This finally worked for me on mac.

  1. in terminal type: iPython and hit return
  2. the interactive python terminal should appear

    In [1]:

  3. type: !pip install Seaborn

  4. You should see: Successfully built Seaborn Installing collected packages: Seaborn Successfully installed Seaborn-0.7.1

  5. Can also try (!conda instead of !pip) but !pip worked for me. Then I tried running the cell in iPython notebook that had "import Seaborn" and it worked.

In my case, I just installed the jupyter again, and it works
