MacBook Pro 13"/2020 says iMovie cannot be updated because it was refunded or purchased with a different Apple ID.

How can I fix the above problem with iMovie, Numbers, Pages, Garage Band and Keynote in the App Store. I don't use the old iMac desktop with the OS Lion software. It's not working and has not more software updates from Apple. So security is a main issue. Is there a fix? My old Apple ID for that iMac is still linked to a email, actually, the Apple ID is the email that we use for everything. I created a new Apple ID for my iPhone XS Max and use it also on the new MacBook Pro 13". Thanks in advance for any information on how to resolve this issue.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15
