It depends on the rest of the sentence. Always use the omission rule. For instance, if you're saying "David and me went to the store", that would be incorrect because if you take out David, the sentence "Me went to the store" would not be correct. You would say "David and I went to the store." // "I went to the store."

However, if you're saying "This book belongs to David and me", that would be correct because taking out 'David' leaves you with "This book belongs to me".

It depends on how it is used in the sentence. Leave out david for a moment, how would you say the sentence if it was just about you?

Example,
Mom gave the money to me.
Mom gave the money to David and me.

I am going on vacation.
David and I are going on vacation.

Leave out david for a moment and think about how you would say it with just I. If it is after a word like to, you never say "to I" . If it is before a verb, you never say "Me will go" so you would never say "david and me will go..." .
Just omit david, write the sentence, then add david back in there. Use I or me as you normally would.

Subject: David and I are going to the store.
Object: Between David and me, there is a close bond. Can you tell David and me how to get to the stadium? Will you do this for David and me?

Depends on whether you're using the words as a subject or object. Just try the sentence with just the "me" or "I" and that should tell you which one to use. E.g., "I ran", "I ate", "I think" would mean you would use "David and I ran", "David and I ate" , and "David and I think". However, in the following sentences, you would use "me": "Mom loves me" would become "Mom loves David and me", "The letter was addressed to me" would become "The letter was addressed to David and me", and "They hired me" would become "They hired David and me".

It depends on the sentence. If it is the subject, it should be "David and I." If it is the direct object or indirect object, it should be David and me."

Example:
Subject: "David and I went to the store."
Direct Object: "The cashier greeted David and me."
Indirect Object:"She handed David and me the grocery bags."

Here's a good way to remember:
Remove "David" from the sentence and place "I" where it sounds right. Then, add "David."

"I went to the store." so "David and I went to the store."
"The cashier greeted me." so "The cashier greeted David and me."

Depends if you and david are the object of the sentece or the subject.
The easiest way to determie it is to think who would the sentece be structured if you removed David. To use Farms good example :

David and I went for a ride.
Would you like to go with David and me?

Try removing david:

I went for a ride.
Would you like to go with me.

not Me went for a ride and would you like to go with I.
