App Store - Changing old Apple ID to a new one defintively

Hello,


I want to install new apps on my mac but an old Apple Id is proposed. I want to change it, because the old one is inactive.


But the "Popup" does not allow to do it.


I tried to Disconect and reconnect with the new Apple Id but the old one comes again and again ...


Some Ideas,


Thank you.

iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2)

Use the sign out function in the Mac App Store's Store menu to sign out of the old Apple ID and into the new Apple ID.

However; content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with another Apple ID with a new Apple ID.
