I want to add some new languages to my projects but after clicking Editor -> Export For Localization -> Save, I get the following error:
Localization failed reading "/var/folders/rs/_qctp1n15gl81l8s0rm7njnh0000gn/T/Xcode3SourceStringsAdaptor-2E68CCA9-A2EA-4EE4-8ED1-A9250721AFC1/Localizable.strings"
Please address the issue at file location 990
I have tried it in different projects, some working well some have this error. All projects have the same languages and are already localized I just have to add some other languages.
I have no idea what's the reason or how I can solve this problem.
I am grateful for any response!

Right click your project folder, select 'New File' , then scroll down to find 'Strings', select it and click 'Next'. Then name the file as 'Localizable. strings' and click 'Create'.
Click on iOS->App/Single View App->Next. Name your project and select the language as Swift. Select a desired location and click on Create. To start with Localization, click on your Project Name -> go to Info Tab -> Under Localizations, click on the '+' button.
Export localizations using XcodeIn the Project navigator, select the project, then choose Product > Export Localizations. In the dialog that appears, enter a folder name, choose a location, choose the localizations, and click Export.
The key used to look up an entry in a strings file or strings dictionary file.
The issue seems to be in Xcode 6.3, that the XLIFF parser suddenly chokes on unescaped quotes ('). A solution seems to be to escape (with a backslash) all instances of quotes in your source code, e.g replace @"Foobar's" with @"Foobar\'s".

Accepted answer has an issue: after exporting and import back localisations - escape sign is gone!
As @progrmr mention in comments - there is better workaround to replace ' with left single quote ’ sign! (option - shift - ] on OS X)
