Q: I have changed my apple ID from and setup an associated password but on my Iphone it is still asking for the other password

I have changed my Apple ID @btconnect.com to @gmail with associated password but when I try to update Iphone apps it asks for the @btconnect.com password which I don't know. Why does it not ask me for the gmail account password?

    why did you change Apple id ,the Apple id does not need to be an active email address it is just a marker for your relationship with Apple you link an active email address to that id

    Apps purchased or downloaded with an Aple ID will continue to be associated with the Apple ID used for the download. If you change your Apple ID you still need to enter the old Apple ID and password to update pervious on downloaded or purchased apps. There is no way to transfer an app from your old Apple ID to your new ID.
