type or namespace could not be found / Xamarin

Question

i tried the MVVMCross Tutorial over at https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&list=PLR6WI6W1JdeYSXLbm58jwAKYT7RQR31-W&v=_DHDMNB_IeY&t=1563s. Android works very fine.

I'm currently at iOS and it does not work like in the video. It says: 
Error   8   The type or namespace name 'MvxMessage' could not be found (are you missing a using          directive or an assembly reference?)

so i can't to anything. Do you guys know what to do?

Edit: I use Xamarin.iOS Unified.

The general advice seems to be not to use the unified projects yet.

See:

Could not install package MvvmCross.PortableSupport 3.2.1 at Visual Studio 2013 for PCL Profile 158
http://blog.xamarin.com/is-the-ios-unified-api-for-me/ - "if you don’t need to utilize the App Extensions framework today, hold off on moving to our preview Unified API"

Thanks Stuart, i tried to create a new Portable Class Library and dechecked the Xamarin.iOS Unified API but "it will be automatically targeted because they support the same set of portable APIs: Xamarin.iOS (Classic), Xamarin.iOS Unified API." I think i must edit the Target-Framework myself, hm? – crex Sep 30 '14 at 07:28
