Hi, cameo557.  
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
I understand that you are receiving a prompt for an old Apple ID when attempting an update.  You cant attempt to reset that password for the Apple ID via the steps in the first article below.  If you need assistance with this or are not receiving the email, see the second attached article.  You can also delete the applications in question and download them again with your new Apple ID.  However, this will cause any application data in those applications to be deleted and you may be charged if these are paid for applications.
