How to access to my Mac Book Pro's iTunes with Apple TV?

All right, I'm new on Mac. Just bought a Mac Book Pro, Time Capsule, iPhone 5 and Apple TV!

I'm using my TC as an external HD, since I allready have everything backed up on another non-wifi HD.I've already imported some files from the TC to iTunes.

When I go to iTunes on my Apple TV it says that "THERE ARE NO SONGS IN THIS LIBRARY". Do I need to link my Mac Book to Apple TV or something? Everything is connected to the same wifi network.

Any help?

Thanks!!

Hi agustin.wvonb,

Welcome to Apple! I'm sure you are excited to learn about all of these great products.

A good place to start is our main support website

Apple - Support

http://www.apple.com/support/

You'll find some great "getting started" videos and specific resources for each of our products.

The first step is to decide if you want your iTunes library to be on your Macbook Pro, or on your Time Capsule.

Then you can add music to your iTunes Library and access it via your Apple TV.

The articles below will get you started with this:

This should get you started, Agustin.

Enjoy!
