I have basically the same question as this post: when running pod install I get The `master` repo requires CocoaPods 0.32.1, try updating but still in 0.31 but the answer doesn't help me (I'm not allowed to comment on things yet haha!)

I try to run 'pod install' or 'pod setup' and I get an error saying:

[!] The `master` repo requires CocoaPods 0.32.1 - 
Update CocoaPods, or checkout the appropriate tag in the repo.
/Library/Ruby/Gems/2.0.0/gems/claide-0.5.0/lib/claide/command.rb:281:in `rescue in run': undefined method `verbose?' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError)

    from /usr/bin/pod:23:in `load'
    from /usr/bin/pod:23:in `<main>'
Then I run 'sudo gem install cocoapods' and I get:

Successfully installed cocoapods-0.32.1
Parsing documentation for cocoapods-0.32.1
Done installing documentation for cocoapods after 1 seconds

Even after this, I run 'pod --version' and I still get 0.31.1. Is there another step I need to take to successfully update to 0.32.1?
                It's showing me an error: ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Errno::EPERM)     Operation not permitted - /usr/bin/xcodeproj   - What's solution of this issue?

                Thanks, I had to run both "gem uninstall cocoapods" and "sudo gem uninstall cocoapods" in order to get this to work

                Forgot to mention that I have tried that several times as well. Do I need to install or uninstall while in a certain directory? I'm performing these commands while in my xcode project directory, but I doubt that matters.

                Yea that shouldn't matter. If you still can't get this to work correctly I'd try setting up ruby through something like RVM or rbenv.

                Oh with rbenv you shouldn't have to use sudo. Also make sure to run rbenv rehash after each of these.

                this helped me! I was stuck on cocoapods 1.10.0 but when updating it keep saying already in 1.10.1. anyways that command saved me. Thank you

For me, the problem is caused by two versions of cocoapods have been installed. 
I uninstalled cocoapods first by running sudo gem uninstall cocoapods.
And then run  pod --version command to check the existence of cocoapods again.
Wierd thing happened! The gem is there.
So I uninstalled cocoapods for the second time.
My conclusion is to make sure you delete all cocoapods completely, and reinstall it. It works for me.
- sudo gem uninstall cocoapods
- Restart the Terminal ( on your Mac)
- sudo gem install cocoapods --source http://rubygems.org
also , better copy paste, easy to do a typo with Cocoapods :-)
