Nativescript-cli: 'iTunes is not installed...' on Windows when using the '--device' flag

Created on 19 Dec 2016  路  5Comments  路  Source: NativeScript/nativescript-cli

The following message is output when starting up a NativeScript application using the NS CLI, or when polling for the connected devices using tns devices on Windows OS:

"iTunes is not installed. Install it on your system and run this command again." - the message is obviously harmless, but can be very misleading, and is absolutely irrelevant to application development on Windows machines.

This also occurs by default with just a tns run android (v3.1) on windows also. (no --device needed)

Hi @NathanaelA

The issue is fixed in nativescript@next.

CLI will not show iTunes is not installed when you run:

  • tns device android
  • tns run android

CLI will still show it when you run:

  • tns device

tns-run-android-issue-2361-itunes

This should still occurred?

tns is 4.2.4

Hi @cfguimaraes,

This will still occur when you run tns device because, but it should not happen if you run tns run android or tns device android.

Ok, alright.
Thanks for the reply.
