Setting up a new mac -- with a new AppleID -- but old iPhone has old ID
#5
Only the apps will end up being a problem with your new ID. All of the other "stuff" can work by just changing the iCloud account on the phone to the new ID.

Apps purchased under the old ID will have to be updated under that ID or re-purchased under the new ID. Free apps are no problem but you may decide to keep the Paid apps under the old ID.

Whatever you do, do NOT let your wife's iDevices ever connect to YOUR user account on any Mac, and vice versa. If that happens, iTunes on whichever User account will grab on to that iDevice and all of it's contents and never let go. Syncing and updating will become a nightmare. This is the voice of experience telling you this.
