I just used Homebrew to install Node. It seemed alright but when I try to update npm with
npm install -g npm
I get the following error:
ERR! addLocal Could not install /Users/myusername/-g
ERR! Darwin 14.3.0
ERR! argv "node" "/usr/local/bin/npm" "install" "-g" "npm"
ERR! node v0.12.7
ERR! npm v2.14.2
ERR! path /Users/myusername/-g
ERR! code EN0ENT
ERR! errno -2
ERR! enoent EN0NT, open '/Users/myusername/-g'
This worked for me in the past with a similar issue:
npm cache clean
You can also try running it as sudo
sudo npm install -g npm

I entered "sudo npm install -g express-generator" which threw errors back at me.
I then checked issues like this on Stackoverflow and found none were successful.
The things I tried were:
"sudo chown -R username ~/.npm" and "npm cache clean"
but it's throwing an error back:

It's a known issue with node 6.6.0 and npm 3.10.8. Have you tried downgrade to 3.10.3?
npm install -g npm#3.10.3
or updating node?

Any idea as to why I am getting these errors?
Use sudo as you are installing in system directory (with the -g, global flag):
sudo npm install -g cordova ionic

Change the order of arguments from:

I am on Windows and am trying to follow the instructions at http://yeoman.io/learning/index.html. So far I have successfully installed grunt-cli and bower but when I try to install yo using the following command...
npm install -g yo

Does anyone have any idea what the hell this means and how I can fix it?
You can try with this : https://github.com/npm/npm/issues/7781
I think this will helps you to solve your question.
And to get node & npm in cmd. You can set node location in windows environment variable. Then restart your cmd & try again to do this.
Try re-installing the setup with feature npm package manager and then get back to your npm install.
