To load .ics file from url I am using open url method as below
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:fullURL]];
It's working fine.
But I want to load .ics file from application's bundle without URL. eg., I have file is test.ics file How can I load this file, can we load anyway it without URL?
You can load the ics file locally
NSURL *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] URLForResource:#'icsName' withExtension:#'ics'];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:path];
- (IBAction)displayICS:(id)sender
{
NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:#"test" ofType:#"ics"];
NSURL *url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:path];
UIDocumentInteractionController *dc = [UIDocumentInteractionController interactionControllerWithURL:url];
dc.delegate = self;
[dc presentPreviewAnimated:YES];
}
-(UIViewController *)documentInteractionControllerViewControllerForPreview:(UIDocumentInteractionController *)controller
{
return self;
}

I am trying to preview a UIDocumentInteractionController like so:
NSString* filePath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:#"FLW-0032 Design Sketches" ofType:#"pdf"];
_previewItemURL = [NSURL URLWithString:filePath];
UIDocumentInteractionController *documentInteractionController =[UIDocumentInteractionController interactionControllerWithURL:_previewItemURL];
documentInteractionController.delegate = self;
[documentInteractionController presentPreviewAnimated:YES];
And all I get is the gray screen with the file name. The file is 5.5MB
What am I doing wrong?
Here is my delegate method:
- (UIViewController *) documentInteractionControllerViewControllerForPreview: (UIDocumentInteractionController *) controller {
return self.navigationController;
}
I am seeing this in my console log

This happens when I a presenting the documentInteractionController
You need to use NSURL fileURLWithPath:, not URLWithString:.
Better yet, use NSBundle URLForResource:withExtension: to get the NSURL directly.
Hi this is my code to open Instagram App directly with an image. As stated in Apple document relative to UIDocumentInteractionController and in Instagram hook page this snippet of code should open instagram directly with the image, but in all testing conditions it open the action sheet with all the app compatible with the extension saved.
I've also whitelisted instagram in LSApplicationQueriesSchemes.
How can i achive this result? It's a bug or a new security feature of IOS 9?
Thanks in advance for your help
NSURL *instagramURL = [NSURL URLWithString:#"instagram:/"];
if ([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:instagramURL])
{
NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory,NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
NSString *getImagePath = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:#"savedImage.ig"];
[UIImagePNGRepresentation(capturedImage) writeToFile:getImagePath atomically:YES];
NSURL *imageFileURL =[NSURL fileURLWithPath:getImagePath];
NSLog(#"imag %#",imageFileURL);
self.dic.delegate = self;
self.dic.UTI = #"com.instagram.photo";
self.dic = [self setupControllerWithURL:imageFileURL usingDelegate:self];
[self.dic presentOpenInMenuFromRect:CGRectZero inView:self.view animated:YES];
} else //prompt for app missing
- (UIDocumentInteractionController *) setupControllerWithURL: (NSURL*) fileURL
usingDelegate: (id <UIDocumentInteractionControllerDelegate>) interactionDelegate {
UIDocumentInteractionController *interactionController =
[UIDocumentInteractionController interactionControllerWithURL: fileURL];
interactionController.delegate = interactionDelegate;
return interactionController;
}
if you save the image as .igo the only apps i see in the actionsheet are "Instagram" "Notes" and "other.
edit: I have't found a way to open Instagram directly with an image it only seems possible to open it directly with
NSURL *instagramURL = [NSURL URLWithString:#"instagram://location?id=1"];
if ([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:instagramURL]) {
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:instagramURL];
}
but you can't add an image with that
edit2: I forgot to add that for the .igo format you need to use self.dic.UTI = "com.instagram.exclusivegram"
I am trying to develop carrier form in my app,here i am trying to implement resume upload(file uploading) in my app.Here i am write code for open file manager but i don't know how to pick pdf files in file manager.please any one help to finish this .thanks in advance.
UIButton *button = (UIButton *)sender;
NSURL *URL = [[NSBundle mainBundle] URLForResource:#"test" withExtension:#"pdf"];
if (URL) {
// Initialize Document Interaction Controller
self.documentInteractionController = [UIDocumentInteractionController interactionControllerWithURL:URL];
//Configure Document Interaction Controller
[self.documentInteractionController setDelegate:self];
// Present Open In Menu
[self.documentInteractionController presentOpenInMenuFromRect:[button frame] inView:self.view animated:YES];
}
this is the code i am using for open file manager.
Try This
NSArray *path = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory,
NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *docsDirectory = [path objectAtIndex:0];
NSString *filePath = [docsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:#“sample.pdf"];
NSURL *pdfUrl = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:filePath];
pdf = CGPDFDocumentCreateWithURL((CFURLRef)pdfURL);
I am trying to open a PDF file that I have stored locally within my app in iBooks. The app currently has a list of "literature" in a table view and when each cell is tapped the app segues to a webView that displays the PDF file (works great). I have made a BarButton at the top right in navBar to allow the user to open the PDF in iBooks (so they can store it on his/her device).
So far the button will open a UIDocumentInteractionController that displays all apps on the device that can open the file (after checking if iBooks is installed). Then when I click the iBooks icon the app crashes. I was able to revise the code so that iBooks opens without crashing, but the PDF file is not carried through so it's kind of pointless (code below is reverted back to when it crashes).
Code below is inside the IBAction of the barButton...
NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:litFileName ofType:#"pdf"];
NSURL *targetURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:path];
UIDocumentInteractionController *docController = [UIDocumentInteractionController interactionControllerWithURL:targetURL];
if ([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:[NSURL URLWithString:#"itms-bookss:"]])
{
[docController presentOpenInMenuFromRect:CGRectZero inView:self.view animated:YES];
NSLog(#"ibooks is installed");
}
else
{
NSLog(#"no ibooks installed");
}
Fixed it! Took some time away from the project and after coming back two weeks later I figured it out in <15 minutes.
So it was a memory issue for the docController and by declaring in the .h file and using (retain) it works perfectly. I was also able to use the [NSBundle mainBundle] method as well.
.h
#property (retain)UIDocumentInteractionController *docController;
.m
#synthesize docController;
//in bar button IBAction
NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:litFileName ofType:#"pdf"];
NSURL *targetURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:path];
docController = [UIDocumentInteractionController interactionControllerWithURL:targetURL];
if([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:[NSURL URLWithString:#"itms-books:"]]) {
[docController presentOpenInMenuFromRect:CGRectZero inView:self.view animated:YES];
NSLog(#"iBooks installed");
} else {
NSLog(#"iBooks not installed");
}
On iOS 8 the layout of the file system changed and sharing files directly from the main bundle no longer works. Copy the file to the documentsdirectory and share it from there.
Here is how to create the file path:
NSString *documentsDirectory = [NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES) firstObject];
NSString *fileName = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#.pdf",litFileName];
NSString *filePath = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:fileName];
NSURL *url = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:filePath];
Thanks to a couple other posts here , I've successfully be able to use the Instagram iPhone hooks to open Instagram and present it with a photo successfully from my application.
(I've made my ViewController class a delegate of UIDocumentInteractionController, and alloc/init'ed a nonatomic/retain property of UIDocumentInteractionController...
However, the key that I put into my NSDictionary that I place in the document controller annotation property will not seem to carry over to Instagram - the caption area is just empty.
How do I deal with this?
Here is my method:
- (void) uploadImageToInstagram:(UIImage *)imageToUpload {
NSLog(#"postToInstagramInBackground");
NSURL *instagramURL = [NSURL URLWithString:#"instagram://app"];
if ([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:instagramURL]) {
// Upscale to 612x612
imageToUpload = [self upscaleImage:imageToUpload];
// Get JPG + IGO Format
NSString *savePath = [NSHomeDirectory() stringByAppendingPathComponent:#"Documents/generate.igo"];
[UIImageJPEGRepresentation(imageToUpload, 1.0) writeToFile:savePath atomically:YES];
// Paths
NSURL *imageURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:savePath];
NSURL *igImageHookFile = [[NSURL alloc] initWithString:[[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:#"file://%#",savePath]];
// Setup DocController
self.docController.UTI = #"com.instagram.photo";
self.docController = [self setupControllerWithURL:igImageHookFile usingDelegate:self];
self.docController.annotation = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:#"MyApp" forKey:self.caption.text];
[self.docController setURL:imageURL];
[self.docController presentOpenInMenuFromRect:CGRectZero inView:self.view animated:YES ];
}
else {
NSLog(#"Instagram not installed in this device!\nTo share image please install Instagram.");
}
}
There are a few methods that are called here that I haven't included, one that upscales the image to make sure its 612x612, and one setups the file url for the document controller.
Proper syntax should be
self.docController.annotation = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:self.caption.text forKey:#"InstagramCaption"];
