 Step 1:Install Nodejs. You can find a tutorial here on how to setup Node.
        We will leverage Node Package Manager to setup Cordova & PhoneGap
 Step 2: Install PhoneGap – Run sudo npm install -g phonegap
 Step 3: Install Cordova Command Line tools – Run sudo npm install -g cordova
 Step 4: Install HomeBrew. We will use HomeBrew to setup Ant on our system.
 If you don’t have HomeBrew, run 
 ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/go/install)"
 at your terminal.
 Step 5: Install Apache-Ant. Run brew update & then install ant brew install ant
 Step 6: For iOS development, Run to the App Store & Download the latest
  version of XCode.   After the installation is completed, 
  launch the application & accept the license, terms.

iOS setup

Step 1: Create a new folder and name myApp.
Step 2: Open terminal here & Run phonegap create myFirstApp. 
This will setup the required files for a startup project.
Step 3: cd myFirstApp
Step 4: Then lets add a iOS platform instance. Run cordova platform add ios
Step 5: Build the iOS project. Run cordova build ios After a stream of messages, 
you should see something like this

Answer 4

Best option might be to create a new project in 2.7 using the getting started guides and then copy over your old project into the new project. It is not super easy, but probably the best way.

Updating Cordova and Your Project

After installing the cordova utility, you can always update it to the latest version by running the following command:

$ sudo npm update -g cordova

Use this syntax to install a specific version:

$ sudo npm install -g cordova@3.1.0-0.2.0

Run cordova -v to see which version is currently running. Run the npm info command for a longer listing that includes the current version along with other available version numbers:

$ npm info cordova
