Apple ID in app store

I can’t update my apps because the email that pops up for a password to update isn’t the correct email, but in my settings and iTunes it is the correct email. How do I change the incorrect email so I can update my apps?

 A request for another Apple ID password is often caused by updates to apps/purchases that were made when using the other ID. Those purchases are tied to the other ID and can't be transferred. One option is to delete the apps/purchases made by the other ID and download them using the new ID if desired. If necessary, check your purchases history to see which apps/purchases weren’t made by the current ID.
