Reply to Install Tensorflow on Mac m1
Hello! It took me a very long time to come up with a solution for installing Tensorflow on an Apple Mac M1, but i finally did it. I have written instructions, so that others maybe do not have to go through this tedious frustration ;). My approach is different to the mentioned one, as I already have Anaconda installed and I did not want to delete it. Prerequesites: python installed, preferably between 3.8 and 3.10 anaconda installed Steps: create new environment in anaconda navigator, with python version 3.9 (I called the environment tf) activate the terminal of the environment write conda install -c apple tensorflow-deps write conda install pip in terminal figure out where the pip executable is (in my case it is /Users/Alexander/opt/anaconda3/envs/tf/bin/pip) now to the crucial part: the newest releases don't really work in my experience. Therefore previous versions are installed. Creds to @dweilert. write "/Users/Alexander/opt/anaconda3/envs/tf/bin/pip install "tensorflow-macos==2.9"" in terminal write "/Users/Alexander/opt/anaconda3/envs/tf/bin/pip install "tensorflow-metal==0.5"" in terminal That should be it. I hope I could help.
