Jun 30, 2013 2:35 AM in response to cassie 37by Rudegar,It used to work fine with my old Imac .
this is key!
it still works fine with your old mac if you turn it on
but appletv can only sync with 1! computer at the time
the appletv not being able to tell if your old mac was sold or broke or the likes
it's still waiting to sync with that mac
and will continue to wait until you go into the settings on the appletv and remove the binding to the old
mac and set it up to sync with the new computer

When you say " remove the binding " do you you mean a re-set on the Apple Tv ?
Thanks Again.

Jul 1, 2013 8:38 AM in response to cassie 37by Rudegar,no in the settings of the appletv where one add shared libs and the likes there is a
link it's an icon which show a chain icon of sorts to the right of the icon (it's in the top)
your old computers name should be in text
if you reset it then the binding would also be removed but it's easier just to remove that bit
