[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1815466, member: 396914"] Did you change the AppleID AND the password? What you are seeing seems to say that is what you did. If so, in fact what you did was create a new account, which would have no history of any purchases, so what you see is logical. Your purchases are logged against that old account and as far as I know, other than Family Sharing, there is no way to get them through the new account. What version of macOS are you running? If it's current enough to be accessing the Mac App Store, then on the top bar when you enter the store is an option called "Store" where you can see what account is logged in and then if that is not what you want, sign out. At that point the "Store" menu will change to show a "Sign in" option which you can use to log in again with whatever AppleID/password you want.. [/QUOTE]
