I want to change my Apple ID.

It looks pretty easy to do.

I'm a bit apprehensive for fear of causing issues between my devices and the Apple services.

Am I being irrational? Any advice on making a smooth transition and how to avoid any hidden gotchas?
 
I recently changed mine. It was a minor pain to have to log back in to everything but I never experienced any problems. Nothing got out of sync or disappeared or got duplicated.

I don't know if it mattered or not, but I did make the change at a time when I had access to all of my devices so that I could make the changes to my login information on all of them at basically the same time.
