How do I connect my Apple TV to my new Mac?

I just got a new Mac (Macbook Pro), and Apple TV connects to the old one (MacBook). It's a 1st gen TV. How do I connect it to the new Mac? Can I have it stay connected to the old Mac as well or is does it have to be one iTunes that feeds it? Detailed steps are much appreciated...

Thx!

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.5.8)

You can just do it on AppleTV under Settings>Computers - highlight the top entry (the sync computer) and select and remove it - that will wipe all content from AppleTV so ensure you have this stuff on the old computer or new Mac!


Then in the same menu highlight the blank top entry, select to add a new library, then go to the new computer itunes and enter the numeric code didsplayed on the TV to set up the link.
