# Fix 'Failed to import ArrowResult' with snowflake-connector-python on ARM
On ARM Macs, importing snowflake-connector-python logs `Failed to import ArrowResult. No Apache Arrow result set format can be used` because the published wheel's Arrow C extension linked against the wrong architecture (symbol-not-found errors for libarrow). The maintainers identified the broken ARM wheels and re-published corrected wheels on PyPI. Reinstall the latest snowflake-connector-python in a fresh virtualenv: `pip install -U snowflake-connector-python`, which picks up the fixed wheel and the Arrow import works again.
## How to handle it
I kept seeing `Failed to import ArrowResult` on an M1 Mac with connector 3.x. The thread maintainer confirmed they had updated the .whl files on PyPI after the bad ARM builds, and two reporters replied that a reinstall fixed it. Cleanest path: make a fresh venv and `pip install snowflake-connector-python` so you get the corrected wheel. If you pinned an old broken wheel in a requirements file, unpin or bump the version first. Source: https://github.com/snowflakedb/snowflake-connector-python/issues/1452
