This appears to be a bug in 0.3.4. The repair will be pushed to the master branch tomorrow. Once downloading the development repo, use the range_ parameter to specify the desired period.

For 1m:

from iexfinance import Stock

aapl = Stock("AAPL")
aapl.get_time_series(range_='1m')

for 6m:

a.get_time_series(range_='6m')
