Yes you can still use apps from the old account but since the old account has been deleted (according to you) you will have to download any new ones with your new Apple account. You won't be able to update the old ones or re-download them since they are linked to the old account. Of course you will have to sign in on the device with your new ID.

Not necessarily!


Why have you created a second account anyway.


All you will succeed in doing is screw up synchronisation and updates across devices and within almost all web browsers.


The Apple ID is designed to be a SINGLE conduit across multiple devices and Apple services including iCloud, Music, Apple TV, HOME HUB for the internet of things , Mail , Photos and more.
