Apple ID, or Apple account?


Changing/resetting an Apple ID this way will result in relatively little being affected -->


Change your Apple ID - https://support.apple.com/HT202667 - "Follow these steps to change the email address that you use as your Apple ID."


"After you change your Apple ID email address or password, you might need to update your sign-in information with any Apple services you're using" Click on this link to read "What to do after [or before] you change your Apple ID email address or password" --> https://support.apple.com/HT204071


- You may wish to disable Settings > Find My before changing your information, change the information, then reactivate it with the new information.


----

Doing it this next way will result in loss of anything purchased with the old account (some mitigation possible with Family Sharing), and disruption of a lot of services until you spend a lot of time trying to get things copied from the old account. -->
