Apple ID not recognized in Apps for updates

I signed in on my iPhone with my Apple ID but when I go to update Apps I am told my ID or password are wrong. I have tried resetting my password as well as signing out and back in on my phone to no avail.

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.
