I'm not sure exactly what command you're running, but you'll probably need administrator privileges to uninstall from that directory. Try running the same command again prefixed by sudo.

Also: see #11 for common OS X installation issues.

Edit: sorry, I meant https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/blob/master/tensorflow/g3doc/get_started/os_setup.md#on-macosx-

sudo -H pip install https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/mac/tensorflow-0.5.0-py2-none-any.whl

[tiansiyuan]

it relates to uninstalling six 1.4.1

[tiansiyuan]

I install python via brew and now it works.

So we can say that it does not work with the default python on MacOS 10.11.1 (15B42)

I got this error following , I follow all issues in the github. I did upgarded six , $ pip install 'protobuf>=3.0.0a3'and brew installed python but got follwoing error while installing it.

However, I solved problem by downloading .whl file manually ( https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/mac/tensorflow-0.5.0-py2-none-any.whl ) and run $pip install tensorflow-0.5.0-py2-none-any.whl

I don't know why but it worked

[jctobin]

It worked because there have been issues with openssl, python2.7.10, and homebrew. By downloading it manually you avoided the Requests part that is currently problematic between between the three

[javierfdr]

Actually entering the url manually in a browser you can see there is no SSL certificate enabled for the site.
It works if you do:

pip install http://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/mac/tensorflow-0.5.0-py2-none-any.whl 

(this is changing https by http).

[vrv]

Closing for now as there seems to be some resolution here (though using an esoteric solution).

[gimlyu]

the best way is use virtualenv , not use python env of system default. ［Just walk on by］

[ateixeiramunoz]

I finally did it like this, when reading this link

sudo -H pip install https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/mac/tensorflow-0.5.0-py2-none-any.whl --upgrade --ignore-installed

[whitebread]

Solved it via @ateixeiramunoz 's comment

[AIROBOTAI]

@ateixeiramunoz 's answer worked. --upgrade --ignore-installed is the key.

[CrashRain]

@ateixeiramunoz 's answer works perfectly

[saliksyed]

Thanks @ateixeiramunoz -- worked for me as well.
