Any help would be appreciated!

Answer 1

Nevermind, you don't need CrashReporter.framework with the new HockeySDK, see here: http://support.hockeyapp.net/kb/client-integration/migrate-from-hockeykit-quincykit-to-hockeysdk-for-ios

Answer 2

This happens if PLCrashReporter is already initialized before QuincyKit initializes it. Are you initializing PLCrashReporter yourself or is there any other framework installed that uses PLCrashReporter?

This is the exception that is being raised and causes the crash: https://github.com/bitstadium/PLCrashReporter/blob/master/Source/PLCrashReporter.m#L296
