Hi I have a windows 7 64 bit OS. I am trying to learn how to use opencv but I am unable to get it to work! I installed enthought canopy 64 bit and opencv 2.4.10 version. When I type import cv2 in canopy it gives an error - No module named cv2. The opencv folder is in C:\ and enthought canopy path is C:\users\adm\appdata... I am not given the option to change the path of canopy while installing. it takes the above path by default. What could it be that I am doing wrong? How can I get it to work? Please help!

I tried canopy 32bit as well. Also tried 2.4.9 version of opencv, still the same error.Am I supposed to add opencv\build\python\2.7\x64\cv2.pyd into the canopy folder at location C:\users\adm\appdata...? If so, how to go about it? Also tried appending the system variable path. This is what I did- Computer-advanced settings-environment variables-system variables\path-edit- click on variable value-end- add ;C:\opencv Tried all of the above, still getting the error 'no module named cv2'. Please guide.

Sorry about the comment, but how long is going to take the problem of posting a comment or a question and seeing it only after at least one day and the responses after 2?
