I know this is old question, but I want to tell my solution for problem.

Here is my localization structure:

In my solution i have renamed Main.strings -file to same name that my storyboard.

Now change you ui item localization id to string. In my project that makes the different. Here is image to show what I mean.

Open your storyboard in text mode and replace those id numbers to text.

Now open your Main.strings and type your item there.

You have to set a default value. For example, you want to localize a textField placeHolder, than hardcode a default value for the placeholder and the localization will work.
