It won’t allow me to update my apps, it says the passwords wrong. I just reset it twice and it’s still not allowing me. It’s driving me crazy

Try signing out of the App Store/iTunes, restart, and then sign back in. Check the updates to see if the apps requiring an update are in your Purchases History. If they aren't in your Purchases History, you can delete the app, and download it using your Apple ID if desired. If the apps are in your Purchases History, contact iTunes Support.

This may be your problem, an updating Apple ID settings problem. Apple is aware of the problem.

 

Note that some have solved the problem by signing out of iCloud, restarting their devices, and signing back in

 

I suggest you use my search link (update apple id settings) in trying to solve your problem. You will see a number of links that are related to it (some deal with iPhone/iPads explicitly, and others are more general). Note that I have not seen a definitive solution for it. But, some related to the search link claim fixes.

  

If you want to contact Apple Support to deal with your problem, see:
