In the Project Navigator select HelloRepo. Click on the Build Phases tab.
Expand the Link Binary With Libraries panel click the + button.
Start typing "MobileCoreServices" and then from the filtered list select MobileCoreServices.framework and click on Add.
You also need to add the SkyVault Mobile SDK static library and header files. See the instructions in the "Add the header files and static library" section of this tutorial for details of how to do this.
