I changed my Apple ID and now my icloud isn't working.

I changed my Apple ID. My icloud is using my old Apple ID. It's asking me to log out and log back in to reset it, and saying that if I do, it will delete all of contacts, calendar events etc from my mac... whats the solution?

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.5)

Of course it will. The contacts etc. are held on the server, so when you sign out your device can't access them. (Think of it like webmail). It can't update the data anyway as you've changed the ID. You have to log out and log back in: your data will reappear when you log back in (give it time).
