About AirPlay and Airplay Mirroring
AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). For non-qualifying Macs you can try using Air Parrot.

Troubleshooting AirPlay and AirPlay Mirroring
Thanks to the $15 Beamer, AirPlay streaming is still possible on Macs that do not support Airplay and mirroring.
Other solutions are the Air Parrot, StreamToMe, and AirServer.
none of the above has helped
Did you really manage to read all the links provided by Kappy and try all suggestions contained therein in 16 minutes. 😉
AirPlay requires OSX 10.8 or better.
Ooops, somehow that was deleted.

I am using my AppleTV on my 10.6.8 computer. I just updated my itunes account and the wee icon is now next to the play window.. works fine.
That is basic airplay, not mirroring.
