Is ID spelled ID or ID?
ID means identification. If you must abbreviate identified, it's IDed.
Is the D in ID capitalized?
In English, both letters should be capitalized ("ID"). The lower case word "id" has a specific meaning that does not invoke the meaning "identifier," or "identification." In documentation it should be spelled out (ID abbreviates two different words, after all), or be in all caps.
Do I have to capitalize ID?
The “i” in id. is capitalized only when it begins a citation sentence. Do NOT use id.
How do you write ID in short form?
None are intrinsically "incorrect" (whatever that really means), but the most common in everyday writing would be "ID" or "I.D.".
