Good Afternoon, jdspirit,
I understand you are trying to set up your Apple TV, but it doesn't recognize your computer. It also appears you may have changed the name of your iTunes library? Does the library open when you launch the iTunes application on your Mac?
Here is what the files should look like on your computer:

Mac OS X
/Users/username/Music/iTunes/iTunes Library.itl
/Users/username/Music/iTunes/iTunes Library.xml
Here's how to set up Home Sharing for your Apple TV:

If you have backed up your computer using Time Machine, you may be able to restore the library back to an earlier date before these changes were made.

- Use the timeline on the right side of the window to reach a certain point back in time. The timeline shows the times of all backups on your backup drive. If you don’t know exactly when you deleted or changed a file, you can use the back arrow to tell Time Machine to travel through time to show you when that folder last changed.
- You can also search for a file using a Finder window. From the Finder, enter Time Machine. Then, enter a search term in the search field of the Finder window. Use the back arrow to have Time Machine search through your backups to find what you are looking for.
- To restore a file, select the file/folder and click the "Restore" button. The file will automatically be copied to the desktop or appropriate folder. If the file you are restoring has another file in the same location with the same name, you will be prompted to choose which file to keep or keep both. Right-click or control-click on a file in the Time Machine window to see additional options.
- If you're not sure if you're restoring the right version of a file, you can use Quick Look to preview the file's contents first. Highlight the file and press the Space Bar to take a closer look.
I hope this information helps ....
