I am trying to import Tkinter to my project using Python 2.7 and instead I get the error:
ImportError: No module named tkinter
Before anyone says it, I have tried both "Tkinter" and "tkinter" but have gotten the exact same message.

First try using this code for your imports.
try:
import Tkinter as tk # this is for python2
except:
import tkinter as tk # this is for python3
If this doesn't work, try reinstalling tkinter. If you don't know how to reinstall tkinter look at the tkinter installation page, here.
Some compilers have tkinter preinstalled. For example, if you use IDLE tkinter is preinstalled. As much as I know, if you use IDLE, you have to click a box in order to install tkinter. If you are not using IDLE, check whether tkinter/Tkinter is included in your Site Packages folder. Consider reinstalling the compiler/interpreter you are using. After you made sure it is installed the syntax you have to use depends on the version of Python you are using. I am not quite sure for Python 2, but I think you write:
import Tkinter
For Python 3 you write:
import tkinter
or the more often used:
from tkinter import *
Had the same problem ,please try this;
from Tkinter import *
You should install the tkinter
package for python. Tkinter has been renamed to tkinter in Python 3. The 2to3
tool will automatically adapt imports when converting your sources to Python 3.
Note: The following commands below are assuming that you run a Linux device.
For Python 2:
pip install python-tk
sudo apt-get install python-tk
for Python 3:
pip install python3-tk
sudo apt-get install python3-tk
If you are using Ubuntu or Debian OS try this:-
sudo apt-get install python-tk
Or if you are using Python 3:-
sudo apt-get install python3-tk
