Anaconda Navigator installed OK. Jupyter Notebook Launch from Navigator and Terminal ("Jupyter-notebook") gets syntax errors. Also from Terminal ("conda install -c esri arcgis") gets syntax errors. Is the problem with latest OSX update 10.12.5?

Can you paste your error message? It would be easier to see what is going on.

As to support for OSX 10.12.5, my Mac runs this version and I do not have any issues.

Hi Atma, Here are my error messages. Any help appreciated!

Hi Atma, My earlier reply was from email. Here is another with just specific errors.

For Jupyter Notebook:

File "/Applications/QGIS.app/Contents/Resources/python/pygments/__init__.py", line 46
    except TypeError, err:
                    ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

For ArcGIS:

File "/Applications/QGIS.app/Contents/Resources/python/pygments/__init__.py", line 46
except TypeError, err:
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Could QGIS installed on this Mac be an issue?

Does the error here stem from pygments library installed with QGIS? One way to isolate this is to install and use the ArcGIS API in a new conda environment. I would recommend this as long as you do not have to use both QGIS and ArcGIS in the same python environment.

Atma, This is strange as I also installed Anaconda and the ArcGIS Python API on my two old Linux-Ubuntu computers

the same day and both have QGIS and work OK. I rarely use my Mac and am also new to Anaconda so not sure yet

how to run in different conda environment ( I will look this up). One possibility is to just remove QGIS on the Mac as I

also have it on PCs and Linux computers. However, I only have one Mac. Any further suggestions would be helpful.

     --Thanks!

Atma, Just created a new conda environment and tried install for arcgis python api and startng jupyter notebook.

Both failed with the same error message as before. If no further suggestions I will wait awhile before removing

QGIS to see what happens.

Can you run `conda list` from your newly created env and paste the result? That will help me figure out if you have just the arcgis library or any other libraries that might interfere. Also can you paste the full error message you get when start the notebook

Atma, This are results for conda list and jupyter notebook from new environment (gisdev):

I am afraid your conda env is not correct. For instance, when I run this, I get the following:

I expect to see something like above if you installed the arcgis package in that environment. In your case the list is empty. At this point, I would recommend reinstalling anaconda and the ArcGIS package.
