Ensure HomeSharing enabled in iTunes.
If Appletv suggests a reset go to settings and look for reset there.
If you see an icon with an iTunes connection it needs a factory restore using a USB to microUSB lead to connect to a computer with iTunes. No power lead needed.
Always worth un powering AppleTV and restarting if it plays up before doing anything else.
