I’ve owned Minecraft for maybe 2 years now, but bought it on a different Apple ID. I only recently changed my ID and would like to purchase something inside of minecraft using the new ID. Although when I try to, it tells me I need to repurchase the app. Which I have no problem with, but it doesn’t allow me to. And if I delete minecraft my worlds and servers are deleted, along with my long lasting progress. How can I fix this without switching my ID back?
If your reason for changing the ID was because it needed a different email address then unfortunately you did it the wrong way. It should have been done as in Change your Apple ID - Apple Support
You will have no choice but the delete the app and lose all content associated with it if you wish to use a different account. Purchases made with one account are permanently associated with that account. The problem you are encountering is you are trying to buy items with a copy of Minecraft associated with a different. account.
You can try changing your account email properly this time but you will not be allowed to use the address that you used to create the new account.
