How to revive palms in pots?

Hi, I have two palms in pots. I repotted them last year with premium potting mix and some fertilizer. For the past year or two they have both been under cover and getting limited sun light. Yesterday I moved them so they get direct sun light more.

 

You can see that the plants are still alive and are growing new green branches, but there are some branches which are almost dead and have black spots on them. 

 

What is the best way to revive these? Should I cut off the dieing branches, or just let things naturally progress? I am watering about once a week at the moment, and am hoping the sun will help with rejuvination but am concerned the black stuff on the leaves may be a disease.

 

Thanks
