I'm running snow leopard 10.6.6, and my Apple Tv 1st gen is on the latest update. I can use airtunes from Snow Leopard to apple tv, however my mac isn't listed under speakers when i try to use apple tv as the source.
Do i need to enable my mac to be a speaker? or is something else wrong...
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Your computer doesn't show up as a speaker, it's not supposed to.
(Reply to OP not you Winston!)
Assuming the AppleTV (which is not a backup) is synced with the computer, the files are presumably already in iTunes.
Logical answer then would be to use Apple's Remote app on an iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch to control itunes but you may not have one of these.
Unfortunately using a Mac as a 'speaker' is not possible - no reason why it shouldn't be possible, just not implemented in OS X.

Apple Tv not detecting Snow Leopard as a speaker ?
