  zlib               pkgs/main/osx-64::zlib-1.2.11-h1de35cc_3

check the reference of pip, which is correct.

(test) mac@mac-MBP ~ % which pip
/Users/mac/miniconda3/envs/test/bin/pip
(test) mac@mac-MBP ~ % pip --version
pip 19.3.1 from /Users/mac/miniconda3/envs/test/lib/python3.7/site-packages/pip (python 3.7)

install pip install jupyter shows

Requirement already satisfied: jupyter in ./.local/lib/python3.7/site-packages (1.0.0)

I can use conda to uninstall and reinstall pip, which will solve the Requirement already satisfied issue, but it also upgrades python3.7 to 3.8 for some reason. I have to use 3.7 because tensorflow currently only supports 3.7.

Not sure what's wrong here. I have used the same commands to create environment and also worked smoothly. The only change I can think of is that I changed from bash to zsh because of Catalina. Any help would be appreciated.

The issue was I installed Jupyter with --user flag before, so the package was installed in the user directory outside of the conda env directory. pip list --user shows these packages.

The solution is to uninstall these packages first.

pip freeze --user > packages.txt
pip uninstall -r packages.txt

You can call the pip with the python version you want to install the package for. For more detail please go through the link am pasting below:

Install a module using pip for specific python version

and do not forget to restart your anaconda after installing. Hope it'll solve your issue
