Hi everyone,

Kacper: Sorry, my bad, but no, it didn’t work, unfortunately.

John and Nathan: Thank you, but I haven’t gotten anything to work, which is especially frustrating because I had a functioning yt just a few days ago. Installing yt with miniconda has only made yt less willing to function, not solve my matplotlib issue.

Truthfully, I’m really not sure where to go from here. Any thoughts?

Thank you,
Madison

I’ve tried following the steps on the help page, including re-installing yt, and I still get this same error. I just installed the latest stable yt version (I can’t execute the command to give you specific numbers) on Mac OS X 10.10.4.
