apa style in my thesis

Question

could somebody help me with my APA references for my thesis? This is my code and all the packages that I include.

\documentclass[
11pt, 
english, 
onehalfspacing 
]{MastersDoctoralThesis} 
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} % Required for inputting international characters
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc} % Output font encoding for international characters
\usepackage{microtype}
\usepackage{palatino} 
\usepackage{multirow}
\usepackage[table,xcdraw]{xcolor}
\usepackage[backend=biber,style=apa,sorting=none,natbib=true]{biblatex}
\usepackage[style=apa]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{library.bib} 
\usepackage[autostyle=true]{csquotes}
\usepackage{datetime}
\usepackage{pfnote}
\usepackage{epstopdf}
\usepackage{float}
\usepackage{comment}
\usepackage{subfig}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{color}
\usepackage{pdfpages}
%\captionsetup[subfigure]{labelfont=rm}
\captionsetup[subfigure]{margin=0pt, parskip=0pt, hangindent=0pt, indention=0pt, labelformat=parens, labelfont=rm}
\printbibliography[heading=bibintoc]   <<-- here I always get the error: Undefined control sequence

I get a table with references, almost in the right way but unfortunately not alphabetically sorted and with "yearmonthday" in brackets instead of the year of publication.

Does somebody know my mistake? Thank you very much!

This is a double post. I just provided you a working example in your other thread: http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/351079/problems-with-printbibliography — Christoph S, Jan 29 '17 at 19:57
Hi welcome, the formatting is a bit messed up. Can youn provide a minimal working example? I am almost sure, that the given class has nothing to do with it. Maybe make it independent by stating that it relies on standard boo. — Johannes_B, Jan 29 '17 at 19:58
If you want to write a scientific report, maybe have a look at scientific report — Johannes_B, Jan 29 '17 at 20:01
@ChristophS : Your example does not work for my code, I do not know why ( I changed the bib. document source ;) ) — Johanna, Jan 29 '17 at 20:18
@Johannes_B : Yes, I use this template already but this is not APA style. With numbers it worked perfect. — Johanna, Jan 29 '17 at 20:18
You're welcome. Yet, it is not compilable. Note that, to make a code readable, the simplest is to select it and click on the braces icon in the toolbar. — Bernard, Jan 29 '17 at 20:22
no, without this line "\usepackage[style=apa]{biblatex}" I get the same result — Johanna, Jan 30 '17 at 08:00
Your argument natbib which you specify for biblatex is incomptaible, see section 1.5.4 of the biblatex manual. — Christoph S, Jan 30 '17 at 09:34
True, I can also remove that. However I can still not solve my problem -.- — Johanna, Jan 30 '17 at 21:16
@Johanna I tried a bit around an fixed it: http://pastebin.com/4VbeQvA8 — Christoph S, Jan 31 '17 at 22:14
Thank you a lot! This is brilliant :) Do you possibly also know how to print only the references in the bibliography that I used in the document? — Johanna, Feb 02 '17 at 19:31
