Hello Donna, My Apple Id email used to be siegh...@hotmail.ca and I used this email address for several years after I first got my iPhone and purchased dozens of as underit. When outlook.com email addresses became available I signed up for an email address with that domain and gradually switched everything over to that email address including my Apple Id and I then have been purchasing apps with that Apple Id ever since. Now when I redownload old apps or get updates for them they always work, I never ever had to enter my old email address and password for this. I assume what you did is sign up for a second Apple Id which you now use instead of changing your Apple Id email and this is why you still need to use both Apple Id's. If I sign in at AppleId.apple.com and click on "Edit Account", I see the following information:
SieghardWeitzel Your Apple ID is ***@outlook.com (my email address, it does show the full address, but it's not one I will share here) I can then see the following: Change Apple ID… button menu collapsed menu Enter a new email address to use as your Apple ID: Edit Required, if I expand this I get this: Enter a new email address to use as your Apple ID: Edit Required This is an edit field where I could now enter the new email I want to use as my Apple Id, once I do and click Continue this email becomes my new Apple Id email and all previously purchased apps will be associated with it as will any I purchase going forward. Best regards, Sieghard -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Donna Casteen Sent: Monday, December 28, 2020 9:19 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Sieghard- Changing my Apple ID Sieghard, I didn’t say that apps purchased with the old Apple ID would be inaccessible. All apps purchased with the old Apple ID will definitely continue to work as they currently do. What I said was, the login info to the old Apple ID will be necessary to update apps purchased with the old Apple ID. If there is another way to update apps purchased with Apple ID Aa, while now using the new Apple ID Bb, please do share the steps to do this? This would make my life sooo much easier, not having to remember 2 Apple ID’s & their passwords. I have 3 apps that were purchased 5 years ago, using a family Apple ID account. These apps are updated regularly. The only way I know there is an update to the apps, is by periodically logging into the old family Apple ID or checking the app developers Facebook page.
