It sounds like you are trying to use AirPlay to send content from iTunes on your computer to your Apple TV. Is that right?
Use the directions on this page to set this up - Use AirPlay to wirelessly stream content from iTunes on your computer.
In particular the last section -
If you don't see the AirPlay icon in iTunes
When an AirPlay enabled device is available, you'll see
to the right of the volume slider in iTunes. If you don't see the icon, follow these steps:- Check that you have the latest version of iTunes and Apple TV software.
- Connect your computer and your other device to the same Wi-Fi network. If you're using Ethernet, connect both devices to the same router or hub. If you're using both Wi-Fi and Ethernet, connect your AirPlay device to the same router that your computer uses for Wi-Fi.
- Restart your computer, AirPlay device, and network router.
- Since some Airplay devices include an on/off option for AirPlay, look for the option in Settings and make sure the feature is on. Check the device's user guide for more information.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best to you.
