OverDrive App Problems

I recently switched my apple ID on my iPad. I was having trouble with the OverDrive app so I deleted it. Now I can't download cause it says it is not compatible with the iPad. Is it because it was downloaded with the old Apple ID? If so, how do I fix this?

iPad mini, iOS 9

Can I return to an old Apple ID? Can I return to an old Apple ID? My original ID was merged with a school account from an IPad. This forced me to make a new account which is the one I have now. I cannot download music or apps now. And I don’t have access to the cloud. Is there anyway I can just go back to a previous version? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Apple ID "stuck" on old Apple ID in App Store I am trying to update my apps on my iPhone 11 but for some reason it is asking me to sign in to an old (now defunct) Apple ID which my phone was at one point connected to. Everywhere I can find, in the general Settings and in the App Store itself, it is saying I am logged into my current Apple ID but for some reason, when updating Apps it won't let me through unless I use the old password. I saw on a similar post that it said I need to delete all apps that were downloaded (or maybe purchased) using that old Apple ID but if it is things purchased how can I see that? I do not believe anything I have was previously purchased on that Apple ID and I thought everything that belonged to that Apple ID was purged when I disconnected the Apple ID in the first place. I appreciate any leads

About updating / or deleting an application that was downloaded with the old deleted apple id I am now using a new phone. I have deleted my old apple id. I have now a new apple id, but upon checking the apps that was downloaded here could not be updated anymore because I could no longer access the old apple id that was deleted. thinking if i should delete the app that was dowloaded using the old apple id and re download it using my new apple id. Would that be possible?? please do help me thank you

Do you have this issue with downloading new apps from the App Store?
