How do I Delete old Apple ID

How do I delete an old inactive Apple ID.? It keeps asking me for a password but the id is inactive so it won't accept. I can set up I cloud on my new ID

iPhone 5s, iOS 7

Is there a way to tell which apps are associated with the old id? Or do I have to delete all my apps and start all over again?

I signed into my apple id, updated it with a new email address, deleted the old one from the account. Then I signed out of everything icloud, itunes, app store, on both my iPad and Macbook. Then signed back in with the newer email address. I still get the pop up with the older email address. Isn't it technically still the same account just a newer updated email address.
