I had the same problem. It's fixed in Parse 1.4.0.

Also you need to add the following key/value pair to your app's info.plist:

<string>We want to send your location data to the NSA, please allow access to location services. (replace this text with whatever you want the dialog to say)</string>

References:

• CLLocationManager in iOS 8 - use of NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription

Check this:

Click at your Project Targets/Build Phases/Link Binary With Libraries/

This file must be listed: CoreLocation.framework 
if there is not click Add and select it from the list.

In your ViewController.swift check this:

import CoreLocation

class ViewController: UIViewController, CLLocationManagerDelegate {

/Supporting Files/info.plist <- Click on this file

Click on + to add: Key: NSLocationAlwaysUsageDescription Type: String Value: Add a description

Click on + to add: Key : NSLocationWhenInUseUsageDescription Type: String Value: Add a description

check IOS Simulator /Debug/Location/Apple here you must select something (none => error)
