Apps are FOREVER tied to the Apple ID they were downloaded under. If you have changed your Apple ID at some point, you either have to sign out of your current Apple ID and sign into your old Apple ID to update those Apps - OR, delete those Apps and rebuy/download them under your new ID.


Changing the Apple ID is not a good thing. Changing the Password tied to an Apple ID is the right thing.
