What would be the most straightforward way to open a single, specific PDF file by simply tapping on an icon on the iOS SpringBoard or dock? This must work offline.
I'm afraid it would require a PDF viewer component embedded in a purpose-built iOS app, but I hope someone can prove me wrong.

Upload the PDF file somewhere
Open URL in safari
Hit share button in the bottom
Choose Add to Reading List
Choose Save Automatically if you want it to available offline
Hit share button again
Choose Add to Home Screen
Set a name for it
Hit add
Done

When an app goes into the background, iOS automatically takes screenshots to use in the app carousel.
I'm trying to find where automatic screenshots are stored.
I found several possible options, but nothing.
/Library/Caches/Snapshots/$(BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER)/
/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/$APP_ID/Library/Caches/Snapshots/
I found that screenshots will be saved here:
/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices/{DEVICE_ID}/data/Containers/Data/Application/{APP_ID}/Library/SplashBoard/Snapshots/sceneID:{BUNDLE_ID}-default
Note: The screenshot will be saved only if you minimize the application (go to the home screen or another application).
They are not stored anywhere such that you can access them.

I have an iPhone having iOS 15.02. In the Files directory, there is an HTML file. I would like to open the file in a browser and when I click on the file and open it in Chrome, I receive the following message and can't open it.
Chrome cannot handle this link.
file:///private/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/.../tmp/drivekit/GDKGenoaContentProvider/test.html
Could you please help me with what is the cause of the above message? Are there any settings that I need to do to open the HTML files?
i think the possible and easy means of viewing html files on your iphone is by having to download an application called HTML VIEWER Q.
You can view and download the application from : -

in Excel 2013 when I want to save something I need to go to the file ribbon, and then in the Save As press the C for computer, etc.
Which is the way to set up the simplest way "the old way" to go directly to the traditional Save us dialog?
Add 'Save As' to the quick access toolbar. Then you'll have a button. Or just push F12 as Doug Glancy suggested.
You can press ALT, then F, then A (releasing each key before pressing the next one) to jump directly to the Save As dialog.

I've got an iPad that's got some important data stuck inside one of the apps, with no way to get it off (basically, it has a syncing problem with an external server). It's a third party app from the app store. I'd like to manually access the app's data, in the hope that I can extract it manually. How do I go about this using iTunes/XCode?
Install iExplorer, plug the iPad into your Mac and then use iExplorer to retrieve the data files.
Update: When I wrote this answer in 2013, this above was the case. However, Apple changed the security model in iOS 8.3 so that it's no longer possible for third party apps to access files in the app sandbox.
The makers of iExplorer have a detailed support page covering this issue.
