Honestly, if you cannot yet, you will be able to use the ability "Invocation" soon. Basically you pray to your Deity and they give you a reward. Including enough A.D. to take care of all of your I.D. Scroll needs for the foreseeable future.

throw some junk on the auction house, greens, enchants, etc. someone will buy something from you and then you'll have AD. Starting at level 11 you'll be able to get rough astral diamonds when you invoke once per hour and you can refine them into regular AD. You can also run daily quests / pvp to get AD.
Ident scrolls are dropped randomly by just about any mob in the game, theres no real exclusive place to farm them.
As shmoex said, everywhere, they are random drops. However, if you do stuff like Daily Founder quests, you'll earn AD. I think it's 1000AD per day if you do the founder daily.
In general, so long as you only ID items that you class can use and that are at least as high level as your current equipment (or say +2 levels if you have a blue item) you should not run out of ID scrolls. I don't think there is any place to farm for these - you can get them for AD but that is a false economy. So best to just bite the bullet, and plough on to higher levels, trying to only ID items that are likely to be a noticeable upgrade.

Low level ID scrolls are dirt cheap when bought with AD. There's nothing false about it, if you can't afford enough scrolls to ID everything you get, you are literally doing it wrong.
"Participation in PVP-related activities is so low on an hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly basis that we could in fact just completely take it out of STO and it would not impact the overall number of people [who] log in to the game and play in any significant way." -Gozer, Cryptic PvP Dev
Title says it all, I'd like to ID my gear and I've got no AD.
Thanks
Just do your quests. Loot everything. They drop everywhere and all the time. Like others have said there's no need to ID anything that isn't for your class anyways. Do the daily foundry,skirmish,dungeon quests,for a good amount of AD and more scroll drops. Invoke once per hour starting at lvl 11.....basically just play the game. I just hit lvl 20 and have identified a good many things I prolly didn't need to and I have 50 ID scrolls in my inv just from questing. I have not bought a single one.
