I apologize first that this seems identical to this discussion. My virtualenv seems to work fine. I would just like to use spyder as an IDE to smooth over my Python deficiencies.
Following the above discussion, I changed the interpreter with Tools>>Preferences>>Console>>Advanced>>PythonExecutable and I set it to /bin/python
Great! Works like a charm. However, unlike the case with the default interpreter, Spyder will not autocomplete my code. Normally I am prompted after a period for example.
'Tools>>Update module names' did not help as was suggested.
Thanks in advance, Chris

Interestingly this problem was resolved when I installed PySide to the virutal environment. I was alerted to install PySide when I tried to call matplotlib.pyplot from within Spyder
