Ok so my family decided play a prank on me when I got xbox live an they put false birthdate information under my account. Is there anyway that I may fix this mistake? This is preventing me from downloading mature content. Any help will be suffice.

I doubt that. Once an account has been created the age can not be changed. Nice try though.

Bottom line is you can't. If the information was not correct when the account was created then it was/is against the CoC and ToU. The best reply I can really give you is; If the account birthrate is in fact incorrect talk to the person who set it up. They may be able find out how to fix this for you. I don't think anyone here will do much. The reason being is there are many children who come on here wanting to change their own settings with out the adults knowing about it. You wont find many here who want to be responsible for anything like that.

I know that, I just don't believe it was your family that made the mistake. I believe you entered the correct information and now you realize by doing so it limits what you are actually able to download/access via the Marketplace. You don't like that and are trying to find a way around it. There is no way around it short of creating a new account and starting over, but that would require you to lie about your actual birthdate thus voiding the digital contracts you agreed to and could result in enforcement action being taken against the account. It doesn't happen very often, but there is that possibility.
BTW those limitations are there for a good reason. There are certain guidelines and laws that even the almighty MS must adhere to.
