I have Xcode 6.3, using Swift, importing a Parse 1.7.1 Framework as usual (dragging, copying) and I set it up in a group: Frameworks.
I compile and everything works
If you're targeting iOS 8 and above, you can tell Cocoapods to use frameworks, by putting
iOS 8
Cocoapods
use_frameworks!
in your Podfile, like this example:
Podfile
use_frameworks! platform :ios, '8.0' # Parse pod 'Parse', '~> 1.7'
I could fix the same problem by doing so.
