Hi,
If node binary could not be found. Then fix it writing “y”(instead of n). It will look up for the path by itself and the following line will be result:
Node binary found using .appiumconfig. json at /Applications/Appium.app/Contents/Resources/node/bin/node

In the event you repond to the Fix it? prompt with “Y” and it does not fix it, than what you need to do is install node.js.

If you are using homebrew, form the terminal prompt enter the following: “brew install node” that should fix it.

Rerun appium doctor to verify it is fixed.
