Can you update node and npm? Are you behind a proxy?

@arup What command you used?

Please run the npm with sudo command, example

$ sudo npm install -g ionic

and maybe you have proxy activated, please check your connection setings :smiley:

After I updated Node in my mac, I was able to carry on with ionic demos. Please mark this as resolved.

Thanks.
