This is the error when I impor

Answer 1

When the interpreter says is:

You have installed MySQL_python-1.2.3c1 in /Library/Python/2.6/site-packages but you are adding to sys.path another version in /users/phoebebr/Downloads. When I try to import MySQLdb from the second directory, I've found that _mysql.so is from another architecture.

SO, it seems that you ended with the wrong version of MySQLdb. Delete /Users/phoebebr/.python-eggs/MySQL_python-1.2.3c1-py2.6-macosx-10.6-universal.egg-tmp and /Users/phoebebr/Downloads/MySQL-python-1.2.3c1. Test again to see if the version in /library works. If not, donwload the binary for MacOS. In last instance, download the source of MySQL-python and compile it.
