I can't install ionic on Mac OS X 10.10.3

ionic-v1

My Versions are :

Node version is v0.10.33
npm version is 1.4.28
Cordova version is 5.0.0

The error that occurred when I installed ionic:

**jce010:~ Tareqalmasri$ sudo npm install -g ionic**

I don’t see any error in those messages?

But the ionic can’t install ? why?
when I type ionic -v, I got

jce010:~ Tareqalmasri$ ionic -v 
-bash: ionic: command not found

Another thing when I try to install new version of Note.js ex:
Node version is v0.12.4
npm version is 2.10.1
Cordova version is 5.0.0

Then apply “sudo npm install -g ionic” command, I will have different message as the following:

jce010:~ Tareqalmasri$ sudo npm install -g ionic

I don’t know. I personally recommend installing Node.js using brew, so you don’t need to use sudo.

Finally, I found solution :slight_smile: .

The solution is apply the following command:

sudo npm update -g cordova ionic
