python: spyder, anaconda and pygame

I have installed anaconda on my on Mac OS(10.9.2), but it's often very slow to open the launcher. Sometimes I can solve it with 

conda install -f launcher

anyone know what's the reason for this.

Therefore,I want to use spyder directly, I have installed spyder and want to change python interpreter path to anaconda, how I can set the directory information there in Preferences > Console > Advanced Settings > Python executable? (the anaconda is installed under applications).

In addition, if I can open anaconda, how I can install pygame on it? Thanks!

If you want to use spyder without using the launcher app, you can open a terminal and move to your anaconda directory. The command 'spyder' will open the IDE.

To change what version of python spyder uses, follow to Preferences > Console > Advanced Settings > Python executable, and change it to the location of anaconda python,

/Users/.../.../anaconda/bin/python

For pygame, check this out this answer.
