I keep getting this error and have no idea how to fix. I've been stuck for days. I am using Parse to build this app and tried adding it with a pod. here is the error I am getting:

ld: library not found for -lBolts

clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Answer 1

Try to open your project using the .xcworkspace file instead of the .xcodeproj one.

Answer 2

I faced the same problem.

I've removed -l"bolts" from Other Linker Flags and set the platform to iOS 7.0 in the podfile. Then Clean -> Build. This worked for me.
