Yes, purchases are forever tied to the AppleID used when making the purchase. They cannot be transferred to another AppleID. You will need to use the old AppleID to update those apps. Or, delete them and purchase them again with the new AppleID.


You can also only change the AppleID you use with the App Store once every 90 days.
