One special case you may find yourself in is that the python module used to exist and, for whatever reason, no longer is part of PIP. This may work if you have multiple versions of python installed, one of them being Python3. Try typing: pip3 install (THE NAME OF THE MODULE) If this still does not work, try one last thing before you continue onto the rest of the steps. If you do find the module you need simply copy the command from the page and paste it into your terminal and away you may go. If nothing comes up, make sure to do a quick google search to see if you are searching by the correct name. The main way to do this is to go to PyPi and search for your package. Assuming that, the first thing to do is to check if the module exists.

First make sure that you have installed Python.

When you are frustrated it is sometimes easy to forget to double check things. Now if none of that works, that means you have a problem. (This will not work in Windows no matter how hard you try.) Sometimes, in MacOS and Linux, you may need to instead type: sudo pip install (THE NAME OF THE MODULE) Now in your command line, type: pip install (THE NAME OF THE MODULE) Installing modules to python is painfully easy. I have picked up a number of methods of troubleshooting PIP that have been very successful for me. But everyone has also at some point been in the position where Python’s PIP has given them trouble and they have been lost as to how to proceed. PIP is a powerful tool that everyone should know how to use.
