​I try to install jupyter notebook within virtual tensorflow environment using pip without uninstalling the previous one.But error still exists.
I came to that jupyter should be installed under virtual environment.
I also cannot uninstall the previously installed jupyter.
Thanks in advance

I cannot figure out your problem, but I can suggest you a workaround. First install docker community edition, if you don't already have it. Just follow the instruction at:
https://docs.docker.com/install/
Then, once installed, open Kitematic, it will appear right-clicking the docker symbol. Once it starts, click on "new" and in the search box type "tensorflow-notebook" and then click "create". It will take some moment to fire up but it is a fantastic way of experiencing TF on Jupyter. Be careful though that by definition a Docker is stateless! So take care to configure under Settings/Volumes associated with the TF Docker in Kitematic, a Local Folder where to save all the stuff you want to save.
