Undefined symbols for architecture when add adMob

Question

I'm adding admob to my project, but I get this error:

Undefined symbols for architecture i386:

 "_OBJC_CLASS_$_EKEvent", referenced from:
      objc-class-ref in libGoogleAdMobAds.a(GADOpener.o)
  "_OBJC_CLASS_$_EKEventEditViewController", referenced from:
      objc-class-ref in libGoogleAdMobAds.a(GADOpener.o)
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture i386
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

I have added:

StoreKit
AudioToolbox
MessageUI
SystemConfiguration
CoreGraphics
AdSupport

And also use -ObjC link flags..

What is the problem?

Thanks!

I just upgraded from Google Admob SDK 6.11 to 6.12 and these same errors popped up.

In the project navigator click on your project properties in the top and make sure the correct target is selected. Go to the Build Phases tab and scroll to Link Binaries With Libraries. Add both EventKit.framework and EventKitUI.framework to this list.

As always, Clean and Build your project. The errors should go away.

@Jackson I had the same problem. Adding CoreTelephony Framework solved my problem. You can see all required frameworks on this link https://developers.google.com/mobile-ads-sdk/docs/dfp/ios/quick-start – barisemreefe Sep 24 '14 at 08:22
Dude, thanks, I wish I've seen this before... lost some time with this, thanks! – Badjano Oct 03 '14 at 04:31
aagghhh... I feel stupid... I had even done a visual one-by-one confirmation that I had every depended framework linked, when I updated from 6.4 to 6.12 today. I saw EventKitUI missing, but ignored it. Then lost half an hour trying to figure out why a symbol wasn't found for i386.. duh.. Thanks GMBrain. :) – Tom Pace Nov 04 '14 at 02:19

I had this issue and for me it was missing MessageUI.framework.

This is the most current list of frameworks you need to include for AdMob: (July 2016)

AdSupport.framework,
EventKit.framework,
EventKitUI.framework,
CoreTelephony.framework,
StoreKit.framework,
MessageUI.framework
