ACAccountStore Error 6 (ACErrorAccountNotFound) and 8

Question

I'm attempting to get an account from ACAccountStore using the following code:

- (void) facebookLoginOnSuccess: (void (^)(void)) successBlock onError:(void(^)(NSError *error))errorBlock{

    self.facebookPermissions = @[
        @"offline_access",
        @"publish_stream",
        @"user_birthday",
        @"user_location",
        @"email"
    ];
    
        
    NSDictionary *options = @{
        @"ACFacebookAppIDKey": [[NSBundle mainBundle] objectForInfoDictionaryKey:@"FacebookAppID"],
        @"ACFacebookAppVersionKey": @"1.0",
        @"ACFacebookPermissionsKey": self.facebookPermissions,
        @"ACFacebookPermissionGroupKey": @"write"
    };
    
    [self accountLoginFor:ACAccountTypeIdentifierFacebook withOptions:options OnSuccess:successBlock onError:errorBlock];

}

- (void) accountLoginFor: (NSString *) accountTypeID withOptions: (NSDictionary *) options OnSuccess: (void (^)(void)) successBlock onError:(void(^)(NSError *error))errorBlock{

    ACAccountStore *accountStore = [[ACAccountStore alloc] init];
    ACAccountType *accountType = [accountStore accountTypeWithAccountTypeIdentifier:accountTypeID];
    
    [accountStore requestAccessToAccountsWithType:accountType
                                          options:options
                                       completion:^(BOOL granted, NSError *error){
        if (granted){
            NSArray *accountsArray = [accountStore accountsWithAccountType:accountType];
            NSLog(@"%@",accountsArray);
        }
        else {
            NSLog(@"Error accessing account: %@", [error localizedDescription]);
        }
    }];
    
}

But I'm getting this error:

Error Domain=com.apple.accounts Code=6 "The operation couldn't be completed. (com.apple.accounts error 6.)"

And I can't find anything related, just this question. Any ideas what could be wrong?

Update

I found this on the Apple Developer Docs.

Accounts Framework

When requesting access to Facebook accounts, the only key required in your options dictionary is ACFacebookAppIdKey. ACFacebookPermissionGroupKey and ACFacebookAppVersionKey are now obsolete.

If you request a write permission under ACFacebookPermissionsKey, such as publish_stream, you must provide a value for ACFacebookAudienceKey, which can be one of ACFacebookAudienceEveryone, ACFacebookAudienceFriends, or ACFacebookAudienceOnlyMe.

So I changed my options to:

    NSDictionary *options = @{
        @"ACFacebookAppIDKey": [[NSBundle mainBundle] objectForInfoDictionaryKey:@"FacebookAppID"],
        @"ACFacebookPermissionsKey": self.facebookPermissions,
        @"ACFacebookAudienceKey": ACFacebookAudienceFriends
    };

But I'm getting the same error.

Ok so if you haven't setup an account from your Settings in iOS 6 it throws error code 6. If the user simply denies permission than it throws error code 7. In case 6 i suggest you ask the user to first setup her account in Settings.

NSDictionary *options = @{
ACFacebookAppIdKey: @"1234567890",
ACFacebookPermissionsKey: @[@"publish_stream"],
ACFacebookAudienceKey: ACFacebookAudienceFriends
};

[self.accountStore requestAccessToAccountsWithType:facebookAccountType options:options completion:^(BOOL granted, NSError *error)
{
    if (granted)
    {
        NSArray *accounts = [self.accountStore accountsWithAccountType:facebookAccountType];

        if([accounts count]>0)
            self.facebookAccount = [accounts lastObject];
    }
    else
    {
        dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{

            // Fail gracefully...
            NSLog(@"%@",error.description);
            if([error code]== ACErrorAccountNotFound)
                [self throwAlertWithTitle:@"Error" message:@"Account not found. Please setup your account in settings app."];
            else
                [self throwAlertWithTitle:@"Error" message:@"Account access denied."];

        });
    }
}];
