I am using trying to use scifihifi-iphone (from Github) to store and retrieve usernames and passwords. However, when I add the class SFHFKeychainUtils I get the following errors:

  "_kSecAttrAccount", referenced from:
      _kSecAttrAccount$non_lazy_ptr in SFHFKeychainUtils.o
  "_SecItemDelete", referenced from:
      +[SFHFKeychainUtils deleteItemForUsername:andServiceName:error:] in SFHFKeychainUtils.o

  "_kSecValueData", referenced from:
      _kSecValueData$non_lazy_ptr in SFHFKeychainUtils.o
ld: symbol(s) not found

What am I leaving out? When I click the errors, it doesn't take me to any place in the code.

Add Security.framework, then rebuild. Sometimes I find I have to build clean and then rebuild.

To add this, right click on your target in Xcode, then Add->Existing Frameworks and choose (or navigate) to Security.framework.
