After installing vinyl plank flooring, there are shiny shoe sole prints that show in the reflection of the new floor. I mopped with warm water and vinegar and it did not make any difference. The instructions repeatedly caution not to use any but the mildest cleaning solutions. Help!

I would try magic eraser type sponges. You can get a generic version at Dollar Tree for a buck.
A friend told me that tennis balls rubbed on the spot will take care of the marks. I've never had to face this problem, thankfully, so this is just hearsay that may be worth trying.
I've used a good old fashioned eraser with great success.

I need help for removal of rubber skid marks left on a standard linoleum floor from when I was moving a TV.

Use cloth + toothpaste + good old elbow grease.
You can also try rubbing with paste wax or with a standard pink eraser. These both work on scuff marks made from shoes. Another thing that works is rubbing with scuff mark with the sole of a non-marking shoe, like a white runner.
Wipe down with Goof-Off. Mr. Clean Magic Eraser works well also.
The marks come off easily when you rub them with a tennis ball.
