I can't update my apps after I changed my Apple ID

How can I get my old Apple ID back. I changed it now I can’t do any up dates on my apps. It will not let me.

Did you create a new Apple ID or change the email address of an existing Apple ID?


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.
