Are you use the framework in an installed location (e.g.
~/Library/Frameworks/), or embed it into your app? From what I know,
the path of a framework is embedded into it, so if it's not set up how
you want you'll need to rebuild it.

If you're planning to embed it into your app (i.e. have it at
MyApp.app/Frameworks/TheFramework.framework), I found this tutorial
video very helpful: <http://www.rentzsch.com/cocoa/embeddedFrameworks>
You should be able to use that information to change the framework
you're using, if necessary.
