If anyone is having the same problem using the iOS8 Betas, there seems to be a bug with the way the Entitlements are generated in Xcode 6. I was banging my head against this for days until coming across this post in the Apple Developer Forums: https://devforums.apple.com/thread/229509?

Essentially, Xcode generates a key named com.apple.developer.icloud-container-identifiers when it should be com.apple.developer.ubiquity-container-identifiers (ubiquity, not icloud). It may also have the value set as iCloud.$(CFBundleIdentifier) when it should be $(TeamIdentifierPrefix).$(CFBundleIdentifier).

Of course this may get fixed in the next Beta but for anyone as confused as me I hope this helps.
