Are Anaconda py packages only available through Conda?

I have installed Anaconda and can use the commonly seen packages like matplotlib, seaborn, scipy etc on its Spyder, jupyter Qt Console etc. But I often use IDLE and those modules can't be imported as import numpy said the package isn't installed. Do I need to pip install numpy, scipy, etc to use them outside of Anaconda apps?

Also, I open the "Anaconda Prompt" then type jupyter qtconsole to open the QT console. Is there a direct way to open it from the "normal" command prompt?

Sounds like you have a standard Python and Anaconda both on your system and your other environments access Python instead.
 
I use it on windows and did
1. "anaconda prompt" where conda
2. copied the paths and pasted onto environment variables
3. access it from cmd by jupyter qtconsole
4. packages are available in anything conda related but not on IDLE and cmd
