Maybe this does not work at all, because its a Mac, but maybe there is a way to open a jupyter notebook on a Mac? I tried the following command

jupyter notebook Manager.ipynb

and I got an error 

Error executing Jupyter command 'notebook': [Errno 2] No such file or directory. Same with out 'notebook':

jupyter Manager.ipynb 
Error executing Jupyter command 'Manager.ipynb': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

There is a file named Manager.ipynb in the current folder.

So is there a way to open that notebook on a Mac? Do I have to install some crazy stuff in order to make it work?

  • have you installed it yet? http://jupyter.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install.html – holex Oct 06 '17 at 14:47
  • can you make sure that `ipynb` file exists in your current directory? of course Jupyter works on Macs and it also looks like it is properly installed on your Mac – Mert Buran Oct 06 '17 at 14:48
  • is there some other application with the same name? – Alex Oct 06 '17 at 14:49
  • And yes, the file DOES exist in the same directory. I just checked again... – Alex Oct 06 '17 at 14:50
  • Not able t install it: "OSError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted: '/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/share'" – Alex Oct 06 '17 at 14:51
  • Probably a Mac issue - again.... – Alex Oct 06 '17 at 14:51

The problem I was facing was either a mis-installation of jupyter, or there is another application on Macs with the same name. However, (re)install it with this command

pip install --user jupyter

(a global pip install does not seem to work because of some Mac-nonsense, see here), and then it might work. Or install it in a virtual environment altogether.

This may or may not be helpful for you, but it's something to know and it's how I access the notebook on my mac.

When I installed Julia, it just came with the command line, I never got the icon to open the notebook or anything of that nature. I had too much trouble trying to install it so I just gave up on getting the icon or a direct link, but if you get Julia installed, you should be able to access the terminal version by entering 

$ Julia

Or clicking on the Julia terminal icon, which will give you this:

Julia terminal

And then you can just open the notebook by running the following:

using IJulia
IJulia.notebook()

Also if you're just starting with Julia don't forget you may have to add the package manager by typing using Pkg or adding it directly to your code.

This should open it in your default browser (there is no option to open it in a different browser or window). I'm not sure if this is useful but it's an option for those who have trouble installing it like I did.
