Old Apple ID

I keep getting a notification some days to enter a password for an ID that I don’t use anymore on my new phone. How can I stop this? By adding a new Apple ID on this phone?

iPhone XR, iOS 14

It could be an app that was downloaded with an old account to update. Delete that app and download it with the new ID.


If you simply changed the email address on a single account please read this link and learn "What to do after [or before] you change your Apple ID [email address] or password" --> https://support.apple.com/HT204071 - "After you change your Apple ID email address or password, you might need to update your sign-in information with any Apple services you're using." - Or if you're seeing persistent disabled messages or repeated requests for the password to your previous Apple ID. You may also wish to turn off "Find My" before changing information and turn it on again afterward.
