None of the previous answers pointed out the root problem in my situation  So I hope this may be useful to someone else   In my case I ended up having to edit my podfile at the root of my project  When I first created my podfile  swift static libraries were not supported  So I had been using use frameworks  in my podfile under each of my targets as such   BEFORE      target  targetName  do    use frameworks     pod  podName      gt  0 2  end   AFTER      target  targetName  do    pod  podName      gt  0 2  end   I removed use frameworks  from my podfile which kept installing the frameworks every time I ran pod install  After removing this line  make sure to run pod install again and remove any of the red  framework references from your Frameworks folder in Xcode   Though mine appeared differently as attached below    Image of Removing  framework files that are no longer necessary  You can also read more about use framework  here

I cleared this error by deleting the red  framework files that were located in a folder Frameworks in the project navigator  I think this also automatically deleted corresponding red entries in the Linked Frameworks and Libraries section of the General settings   I have been cleaning   reinstalling pods in order to fix another issue   Perhaps these red framework files and entries were just leftover from a previous pod install

Step 1     The first thing that you will need to do is remove the Podfile  Podfile lock  the Pods folder  and the generated workspace     Step 2     Next  in the  xcodeproj  remove the references to the Pods xcconfig files and the libPods a file     Step 3     Within the Build Phases project tab  delete the Check Pods Manifest lock section  open  Copy Pods Resources section  bottom  and Embed Pod Resources bottom      Step4     Remove Pods framework    The only thing you may want to do is include some of the libraries that you were using before  You can do this by simply draging whatever folders where in the pods folders into your project  I prefer to put them into my Supporting Files folder    It worked for me

In my case  after comparing the difference between a branch I knew built correctly  I noticed this line in my Podfile   platform  ios   11 0    I had inadvertently up d my target version from 10 to 11 while my targets in Xcode remained set to 10  Reverting back to 10 solved my issue for me   Ensure your target iOS versions are properly set

This issue was driving me crazy as it suddenly happened without doing any changes to the project  I ve tried all suggested solutions in this thread  and other related  and none of them solved the problem   The only thing that differed from my other projects  which compiled fine   was that this project name was containing an accent  a french accent         I ve renamed the project and all related files  and it finally worked    Maybe this is related to updating to Xcode 10  because this project was working well before     EDIT   it also seems to failed when using a project with - in project name

This is the way i fix my problem  and it now work when i writing this answer   Firstly  i try all the most fix way above    remove Pods xxx framework from the link libraries and framework in target s build phases is helpful  and the issue will disappear  but the coming problem is i can t import the Pods framework anymore   And Then  i try to reinit the xcworkspace config  so that i can figure out the real problem  so i run  pod deintergate   and then install my pod again   pod install   this work prefectly  but the problem is still in there  but i figure out the real problem is the Pods xxx framworks not be compiled succeed by cocoapods build script  I think this is the true way to fix the problem   Finally  i try to edit my project s scheme     and i add Pods scheme into manage     and build this Pods framework separately  and you will find the Pods framework icon become truly again        and i think now you have fix your  framework not found Pods xxxx framework  problem   but actually i have another problem coming      so i go to the build setting  and edit the  Framework Search Path  with    inherited     and now all the problems goes out  cheer

I tried every answer on here and none of them worked  I ended up getting it working by upping the deployment target from 10 0 to 11 0  I have no idea why that fixed it  but I suspect it has to do with upgrading to Xcode 10 2 1

You re more than likely trying to get the pods to work into you project right   The only way to do so is by creating a separate project that uses CocoaPods    Close all work-spaces that you are using    Next  make sure you have your Podfile completely ready to go   In the command line  wherever your file is  type the command   pod deintegrate   Then  install your pod agian   pod install or pod update   Now you can use your project s new workspace to develop from  Look for a file called  workspace  Use that file   Here is a guide on using CocoaPods

This is usually caused by having the  xcodeproj file open instead of  xcworkspace   When you run  pod install  for the first time  it will create an  xcworkspace file  which includes your original  xcodeproj and a Pods project  You ll need to close your  xcodeproj and open the  xcworkspace instead   This is a common issue when creating a project through Xcode s new project wizard - I often forget that I m not in a workspace  which is required to get Cocoapods to link correctly
