1. Parental Controls on Xbox 360:
   • Check the Xbox 360 parental control settings. These settings can restrict access to content based on content ratings. Make sure they are set to an appropriate level for your preferences.
   • If you've forgotten your Xbox 360 parental control passcode, you might need to reset it. You can do this through your Microsoft account or contact Xbox support for assistance.
2. Activation on Samsung S7:
   • If activating the FXNOW app on your Samsung S7 has changed the parental controls, check the settings within the app to make sure you have set the appropriate level of parental controls. There should be an option to customize these settings within the FXNOW app itself.
3. Unblocking Movies:
   • If you're having trouble unblocking movies, it may be related to the parental control settings within the app. Adjust the settings to allow access to the desired content.
4. Account Syncing: Ensure that you are using the same FXNOW account on both your Xbox 360 and Samsung S7. Sometimes, parental control settings are associated with your account, so if you're logged into different accounts on the two devices, it might cause discrepancies.
5. Contact FXNOW Support: If the issue persists, it's a good idea to reach out to FXNOW support for specific assistance related to their app and parental control settings. They can guide you on how to set up the controls to suit your preferences.

By adjusting the parental control settings on your Xbox 360 and within the FXNOW app on your Samsung S7, you should be able to customize the access to content and resolve any issues with blocked movies. If you continue to experience difficulties, contacting FXNOW support for further assistance is advisable.
