I'm in the process of adapting an existing project to support 64 bit. How exactly should 3rd party libraries be handled? For example i'm using a relativly old AFNetworking version (1.1.0). What is the best practises? Do i just look for each library if there is a 64 bit optimized version and replace it within my project? I actually don't want to just replace every library because something else could potentially break this way. Would be nice to get some feedback on this issue.

Yes, you will have to look for 64-bit clean updates of these libraries. The only alternative is making those libraries 64-bit safe yourself. You can also try to make no changes and just compile for 64-bit too. But then you might have bugs introduced by that.
