If you created an entirely new ID, you cannot transfer the purchased content from the old ID to the new ID since purchases are forever tied to the ID that is associated with those purchase. You have to continue to use the old ID and password in order to update the apps that you bought with the ID.


If you changed the ID, you need to sign out of the old one and sign in with the new one in Settings> iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap the old ID and sign out, sign in with the new ID.
