ios - Error while "Export For Localization.." Xcode 6.3

Question

I want to add some new languages to my projects but after clicking Editor -> Export For Localization -> Save, I get the following error:

Localization failed reading "/var/folders/rs/_qctp1n15gl81l8s0rm7njnh0000gn/T/Xcode3SourceStringsAdaptor-2E68CCA9-A2EA-4EE4-8ED1-A9250721AFC1/Localizable.strings"

Please address the issue at file location 990

I have tried it in different projects, some working well some have this error. All projects have the same languages and are already localized I just have to add some other languages.

I have no idea what's the reason or how I can solve this problem.

I am grateful for any response!

The issue seems to be in Xcode 6.3, that the XLIFF parser suddenly chokes on unescaped quotes ('). A solution seems to be to escape (with a backslash) all instances of quotes in your source code, e.g replace @"Foobar's" with @"Foobar's".
