I'm hesitating whether to downgrade to Python 3.6 or install a new version of TensorFlow.

Does TensorFlow 1.9 support Python 3.7?

  • you can run python 3.7 with Tensorflow 1.12 from here https://github.com/fo40225/tensorflow-windows-wheel/tree/master/1.12.0 – Umer Nov 22 '18 at 20:01
  • What do you mean by run it from there? shall I download the file and where to save it? – ElSheikh Dec 09 '18 at 17:29
  • I have built the .whl for tensorflow 1.12.0 with python 3.7.2 pip3 install tensorflow-1.12.0-cp37-cp37m-linux_x86_64.whl ensure pip3 is pointing to 3.7.2 file is here https://sourceforge.net/projects/getprathamos/files/Adyah/BD_ML/tensorflow-1.12.0-cp37-cp37m-linux_x86_64.whl right now only cpu build is available – Rakesh Kumar Khandelwal Jan 18 '19 at 18:19

I was able to install Tensorflow 1.12.0 with Python 3.7 on MacOS, with the following command.

sudo python3 -m pip install --upgrade https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/mac/cpu/tensorflow-1.12.0-py3-none-any.whl

Not yet. It seems there are some variables named "async", which has become a keyword in 3.7. Shouldn't be too difficult to fix, but still a problem.

Probably not yet.

First of all, you will probably get a SyntaxError: invalid syntax because some parameters and variables at the pywrap_tensorflow_internal.py module have the name async which is a reserved keyword in Python 3.7.0 (see also this post).

However, you can solve this by simply changing the name of all these (Ctrl + R and Replace All) from async to for example async1.

The problem is that then you will probably get a ImportError: No module named '_pywrap_tensorflow_internal' which perhaps may be fixed for any previous version before Python 3.7.0 as this post on StackOverflow suggests but personally I could not fix it on my laptop with Python 3.7.0 .

Consequently, I simply downgraded to Python 3.6.6 and now Tensorflow is working fine.

Tensorflow 1.13.1 now supports Python 3.7.

Finally Worked for me!

On Python 3.6.4 (even 3.6.5 failed for me) Install Python3.6.4 from here: https://www.python.org/downloads/mac-osx/

If you're facing issues with Python pkgs that you already had on you older version just revert it using this post: python location on mac osx

According to the comments on github see https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/issues/20517#issuecomment-457185528

by member av8ramit "We are aiming to try and have Windows and Ubuntu python binaries by rc2 or the official." the estimated release date for 2019-02-03

however on https://github.com/winpython/winpython/issues/687 one can read from a winpython contributor: "Tensorflow-2 is 2019, Tensorflow-1 on Python-3.7 is still not in sight"

I found this to work after searching for a while.

As Tensorflow only supports Python 3.6 as of now, you can install a different version of python alongside your standard one. Here are the steps I followed:

You'll normally find your new python install under /usr/local/bin. Now you can create a new virtualenv specifying the python version with:

  • virtualenv --python=python3.6 env3.6
  • Get into the virtualenv running the command source env3.6/source/bin/activate.
  • Install tensorflow with the classic pip install tensorflow
  • Profit

First of all, 

*conda create -n yourenvname python=3.6    
*conda activate yourenvname 
*pip install tensorflow

then it will work like rock.
