Exactly what command did you run?

The syntax I gave was incorrect. (I took it from memory.) The correct syntax
is

ALTER AUTHORIZATION ON DATABASE::yourdb TO newowner

And while it is unfortunate that I gave you the wrong syntax, nothing
prevents you from looking up the syntax in Books Online yourself.
