I think none of these answers above can fix your problem   I was also confused by this problem once  You should manually install pip following the official guide pip installation  which currently involves running a single get-pip py Python script   after that  just sudo pip install Django  The error will be gone

On Mac using brew is a better option as apt-get is not available  Command  brew install python  In case you have both python2  amp  python3 installed on machine python2 7 -m ensurepip --default-pip  simply should solve the issue  If instead you are missing pip from python 3 then simply change python2 7 to python3 in the command above
