I've created a blog post which goes through complete steps.

Its copy/paste of official installation guide by appium but with some changes/additions. One of which is, instead of cloning git repository of appium, you should do "npm install -g appium" from terminal.

Have you installed Carthage too? Its a new dependency for running XCUI based tests. If not, you can do "npm install -g carthage" from terminal. Also by looking at the error I guess you might not have done "authorize-ios" from terminal. If not installed you will have to do "npm install -g authorize-ios" and then "authorize-ios".

Assuming you already have 1.6 installed and working, along with it's dependencies, I believe all you need to do is run: npm install -g appium@1.6.2 --no-shrinkwrap from terminal.

@reddys There is currently no link to download or .dmg/.exe to install for Appium 1.6.X and there is currently no GUI. You must install it via terminal/command line. Assuming you are on MAC there is step by step guide in this thread that has been posted several times:

You can also search the forum for several other threads on how to install 1.6.

Once you have installed 1.6 and verified its working, you can update to 1.6.2 by npm install -g appium@1.6.2 --no-shrinkwrap
