Hi there - mine is fixed now. I got help from the itunes store support. What I needed to do was to restore the ipod, then set it up as a new ipod signing in with the new email address ID. I was then able to redownload the apps with out paying for them again. All the apps had transferred to the new ID. The original password worked too. It has taken a while but i now have all my apps back and associated with the new ID Hope this helps
