Unable to link GoogleAnalytics 3.01 with XCode 5 (missing required architecture x86_64)

I have built my App (targeted for iOS7) and now want to apply Google Analytics as the last step before submission. What I did:

  1. Downloaded GA for iOS 3.01
  2. Imported content of /GoogleAnalytics/Library/ into group "GoogleAnalytics"
  3. Imported libGoogleAnalyticsServices.a into group "GoogleAnalytics"
  4. Added Build Phases and swapped build phase libGoogleAnalytics_debug.a with libGoogleAnalyticsServices.a
  5. Added code block #include "GAI.h" to my -Prefix.pch-file.
  6. Initialize the [GAI sharedInstance] in my AppDelegate.

I have attached screenshots of the setup in the bottom of this post. When I try to build (either device or simulator, both 32bit), I get the following linker errors:

Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
  "_OBJC_CLASS_$_GAI", referenced from:
      objc-class-ref in FTVAppDelegate.o
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

How do I solve this?

UPDATE 1

I also get the warning

ld: warning: ignoring file .../libGoogleAnalyticsServices.a, missing required architecture x86_64 in file .../libGoogleAnalyticsServices.a (3 slices)
ld: warning: ignoring file .../SDWebImage.framework/SDWebImage, missing required architecture x86_64 in file .../SDWebImage.framework/SDWebImage (3 slices)

UPDATE 2

This error only occurs when building for 64bit. I had accidentally set "Build Only for active architectures" to NO, when this changed to YES, I was able to build yet again. This means that the App now does NOT work on iPhone 5S - which is still a problem.

You're not doing anything wrong. I'm pretty sure google has not yet provided a arm64 version of their libGoogleAnalyticsServices.a, which is really annoying ...it has been weeks since the public the release of Xcode 5GM.

For now, I guess only build for armv7, armv7s or remove google analytics until they get their head out of their pants.
