    Everything that you bought with the old Apple ID requires that ID to be redownloaded, updated and to authorize your Mac s, PCs and iOS devices for use of the content. If you change the Apple ID on your iPad, you cannot change it back for 90 days.

     

    Open the App Store app, go to the Featured pane, swipe to the bottom, tap your old Apple ID and sign out. Tap again and sign back in with the new Apple ID.

    Thanks very much! Now fixed. I'd spent ages trying to do this without success. So simple, yet nothing on the apple i.d. Page!

    Thanks for the post because I kept going round and round trying everything to fix the problem and couldn't find the solution. When I search here in the community I found your post and saw what I had to do. Thank You! I have Windows, Ipad, and Ipod...so a lot of changes to make. I've spent 3 days on trying how to figure this out. Again, Thanks, and thank apple for having the community posts.
