IntelliJ not updating updated Maven dependencies

I have been using version 1.3.2 of commons-io before for project A. On project B I used the newest version 2.4. Now I want to add Project B's JAR as library to project A. Since project B uses functionalities that didn't exist yet in commons-io version 1.3.2 I updated the pom.xml of project A to use version 2.4 for commons-io:

<dependency>
    <groupId>commons-io</groupId>
    <artifactId>commons-io</artifactId>
    <version>2.4</version>
</dependency>

Now when I try to run the code in project A which calls libraries in project B, I'm getting

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils.deleteQuietly(Ljava/io/File;)Z

since IntelliJ didn't seem to realize that the libraries have updated.

I tried re-importing the Maven dependencies and deleting the local directory containing the commons-io libraries C:\Users\Name\.m2\repository\commons-io but that didn't work either. How do I fix this and make IntelliJ become aware of the updated classes such as FileUtils? Their decompiler for example shows me the old byte code version still when I peek definitions but it is supposed to update it according to the pom.xml.

I have import Maven projects automatically checked by the way.

Right click on the project, go to Maven -> Reimport. This should show all the maven imports and update all the new jars.
