Changed my email address / hence my Apple ID - can no longer update my purchased apps

Question

I changed my email address. Logged into the iTunes Store and changed my address  - which is also my Apple ID. The change was applied. I can now low into the iTunes Store with my new email address. But I can no longer update my purchased apps. The iTunes Store claims I don't own the originals and suggests I purchase them. ***? I used their site to make the change. I did not simply open a new account, though that's how the store seems to be treating me. How do I get this reconciled?

Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple,  Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account. You may have already done this.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.
