When I open my app's signing with "codesign -d --ent :- <app path>" I see the iCloud entitlement:
codesign -d --ent :- /Users/jwanner/Library/Mobi/Provisioning\ Profiles/dc54d0d9-2d09-4767-bb0a-df4b886b0e94.mobileprovision

However, when I try to execute the following Objective C statement:
CKContainer * dbContainer = [CKContainer defaultContainer];
2016-04-04 14:16:03.644 Quipzl[1757:1302792] *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'CKException', reason: 'The application is missing required entitlement com.apple.developer.icloud-services'
*** First throw call stack:

libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type CKException
I have gone through the entitlements troubleshooting web page in detail and don't find any errors. I have iCloud Drive enabled in my iPad Settings for iCloud.
What am I missing here?
Finally solved this problem. It wasn't due to any missing entitlements like the exception indicated, and I don't know exactly what change fixed the problem. However the following process worked:
1) create a new iOS project of the same type as the one that was crashing.
2) add the statement "[CKContainer defaultContainer];" to the viewDidLoad method.
3) run this empty app and make sure it doesn't crash.
4) go through all of the app parameters in the new and old apps and make the old app values the same as the new app values.
