Bro, you explain minor details that are crucial to beginners like us, but often skipped by other people. Keep up the good work! I hope you upload more tutorials like this. Know that your tutorial is still relevant til now.
This tutorial is an absolute masterpiece! Thanks to it, I figured out how to install ComfyUI and learned how to work with the terminal in general. You have an incredible teaching talent! Thaaaank you
Hey man just wanted to say that as a beginner myself, I found your video super easy to follow and it helped me map out how ComfyUI ACTUALLY works. Thanks a ton! Will be following your videos while I'm navigating through this software.
Ayyye thanks Mirak, I’m just trying my best. Thanks so much for the compliment and thanks for watching the video, i really appreciate it. Have a great day man!
Absolutely by far the very best explanatory tutorial on how to install and use comfyui for stable diffusion. Outstanding. Thank you so much. Huge help.
I was having problems with comfyui for a few days. I watched a lot of videos but this video gave the answer to every question and the solution to every problem. Thank you very much.
Your tutorial helped me a lot and completely WORKED. I’m trying to run some voice clone stuff in comfy with my M2 Mac Studio but hitting cuda barriers…have you found anything that works and can do TTS, STS plus lip syncs the STS results?
Hey Chris! Happy to help man, thank you so much for the donation! This is deeply appreciated! Have a great day brother! I hope more of my content is helpful to you moving forward
Thank you, very helpful! Before installing Pytorch, it is a good idea to create a venv, so things remain in a sandbox and doesn't mess with your system
Thank You bro!!! Very easy to follow, and difficult to get lost. I've seen many other tutorials on this subject and it seems to be a bit more confusing for someone like me who is barely familiar with coding. You were very helpful with all of the tips, tricks, new terminology and steps.
Hey Yahurdme (great username btw 😂) no problem brother, I'm very happy this was able to help you. I hope I can continue doing so at a high level, thanks for watching and have a great day!
Liked and subscribed. I've been using a windows system for a while now for comfyui and lora training. I've been debating making the switch back to mac as my main machine. Looking at the m3's because of their huge unified ram possibilities. I'll definitely be following you closely for your mac progress. Thanks, boss!
Hey Keng, welcome to the community! Happy to have you. Yea im thinking about getting the M3s to test it out myself. I hope my future videos continue to offer value to you man. Thanks for watching and have a great day!
Great job! Liked and subscribed. A quick tip. You don't have to close terminal each time to restart Comfy. Ctrl+C will stop the program and then you can hit the up arrow key and it will cycle through your commands. Also, you can refresh from inside of ComfyUI Manager. :)
No problem Juliana, happy to help. I remember when I was a noobie myself lol, so i try to keep that in mind during my videos. Thanks for watching, I really appreciate it, have a great day!
Hi, do you have a video for image to video generation on MAC? I installed an SVD model manually and doesnt support MPS backend, also messed up ComfyUI nodes layout, any way to reset to basics from manager? Thank you!!!
hi thank you so much for this great video! I actually got an error when trying to install home brew that is saying .... Warning: /opt/homebrew/bin is not in your PATH. Instructions on how to configure your shell for Homebrew can be found in the 'Next steps' section below..... then it says Next steps: - Run these two commands in your terminal to add Homebrew to your PATH: (echo; echo 'eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"') >> eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)". I'm actually confused what to do to get this working correctly.. I'm on a m2 pro macbook .. Please help ?
I think you're the first person on the internet to ever compliment my name, I'll try to be cool about it but you have no idea what it means to me. My name is not easily digestable and unfortunately a lot of people don't react well to it lol but thanks for your kind words. It gives me more confidence to use it. I will definitely be saving your comment. Thank you. I'm also happy my video was able to help you, thanks for watching and have a great day!
Great explanation, thank you so much! Liked and subscribed🙌 However I had an error message when trying to download the SDXL turbo 1.0: "Install failed: undefined / SyntaxError: The string did not match the expected pattern." Do you know what might be an issue?
Thanks a lot, man! I’ve been watching tons of videos, and this one is by far the most complete, clear, and straightforward guide to installing COMFYUI on a Mac. Keep it up! 🚀 Heads up for anyone following along: while installing the dependencies from requirements.txt, I noticed that #kornia>=0.7.1 caused some issues. I fixed it by commenting out that line. Hope this helps someone!
Hi mate, great tutorial. however, when I finish up trying to install the Comfy UI manager, I get this message in Terminal. - ERROR: Could not install packages due to an OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/Library/Python' Consider using the `--user` option or check the permissions. WARNING: You are using pip version 21.2.4; however, version 24.0 is available. You should consider upgrading via the '/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip' command. I don't suppose you have any suggestions?
This is one of the better tutorials. But some of the links are exactly 'clear', relative to the terminal screens. And of course, there were a number of issues with updating, and in fact deinstalling brew to get sufficiently current with that package. There were also issues with 'external' python packages vs those installed via home brew. That all said... I still only get blank (images filled with 'blank' color field) or some key words, like the single word "bottle" for the default, and only a silhouette against gradient background. I'm using an Apple MacBook Pro with the M1 processor. Perhaps I'll try setting this up on my ancient x86 based MacBook and see if it runs at all, and generates something else. But good work otherwise.
Very good video for beginner like me, thank you so much. I have big sur only (MBP late 2013- NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2GB), when run python3 main.py...unable 🙁
I had a question, i was installing comfyui ,but i got an error: Torch not compiled with CUDA enabled, what schould i do now? ( i habe Macbook pro / macOS Ventura 13.6.3 / core 15/ intel Iris Plus Graphics 640 1536 MB)
Hi, great video! it was good until I installed the Comfy Manager, after that when I tried to restart ComfyUI I have this message: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'torch'. Any advice please :)
gah, all was going well until I did the requirements py step and now I'm saying its externally managed and to try a few different prompt with brew but it might as well be german to me. Can anyone help?
Can you help me out? I keep getting this error message when I get to the step where i type in python3 main.py. ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'comfy.options'. What does this mean and how can I fix it? I have a macbook M3.
Hey Moe! Join my discord, we can talk there and I can help you more thoroughly cause as of right now i can’t tell much about your situation. Its very likely connected to your python installation but no way for me to know unless I see it. Join the discord and pose your problem maybe others can help you along with me
Hi, I followed your video exactly, but when I try to run ComfyUI after doing the download command for ComfyUI manager, I get this error: ERROR: Could not install packages due to an OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/Library/Python' Consider using the `--user` option or check the permissions. Can you assist?
I worked on this for just about a day, then figured it out like 5 minutes after I asked for help. SO what you have to do is after you do the install of ComfyUI Manager, you then launch comfy UI with 'sudo python3 main.py' . It'll ask for your password for your computer, put it in and click enter, and it should install correctly.
i get this error, when i tried my first prompt: Error occurred when executing KSampler: "upsample_nearest2d_channels_last" not implemented for 'Half' this error geos on. any luck?
Hi，I would ask, did you face this problem Apple Silicon M1/M2/M3, My comfyUi pop up this message: "DiffutoonNode Torch not compiled with CUDA enabled". is there any solution to solve it ?
It shows the following message on clicking "Install custom nodes" - The custom node DB is currently being updated, and updates to custom nodes are being checked for. NOTE: Update only checks for extensions that have been fetched. How can I resolve this?
Hey man I'm going crazy! I followed all your steps. The first launch of ComfyUi worked but as soon as I installed ComfyUI Manager nothing worked anymore. Every time I run the python3 main.py command I get the error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'torch' WHYYYYYY???
Hey Matteo, great question, sorry about the late response but yes, thats exactly how you'd do it. Thanks for watching the video and have a great day! If you have more questions, join my discord and ask there
Can anyone help? I follwed this all the way through but the manager is not showing up, already restarted and did all the steps but the manager button is not showing up
Yes that is very true lol, im still looking for ways to speed it up but yea mac ai generation sucks. Thanks for watching the video though ESGaming, i really appreciate it! Have a great day!
When I tried to queue the demo prompt it said: Prompt outputs failed validation CheckpointLoaderSimple: - Value not in list: ckpt_name: 'v1-5-pruned-emaonly.ckpt' not in ['v1-5-pruned-emaonly.safetensors'] Any idea what I missed?
I am experiencing something weird . Installation went smoothly but the "manager" button doesn't appear . not after restarting the terminal nor after rebooting the Mac. Also, when I try to run : python3 main.py I get these errors: h-MBP-sl-dnyl:ComfyUI daniel$ python3 main.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/daniel/ComfyUI/main.py", line 73, in import comfy.utils File "/Users/daniel/ComfyUI/comfy/utils.py", line 1, in import torch ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'torch' h-MBP-sl-dnyl:ComfyUI Daniel$ Only when I run : ./venv/bin/python main.py The server is running Do you know what can be the cause ?
