Depending on which Apple TV you have you may be able to set up the Apple TV from your mobile device. You will need a 3rd generation Apple TV for later running software version 6.0 or later and an iOS device running iOS 9.1 or later.
Restore your Apple TV. When the Apple TV setup screen appears, unlock your iOS device and make sure Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are turned on. Touch your iOS device to Apple TV and follow the onscreen instructions on your iOS device and Apple TV.
Automatic setup doesn’t transfer account information for third-party apps such as Netflix or Hulu, and doesn’t turn on iTunes Match or Home Sharing.
If this doesn't work, you don't have an iOS mobile device or your equipment doesn't meet the minimum requirements, you may wish to look at ciderTV for Mac OSX, once you have installed the app on your Mac...
- Check that Bluetooth is On & Discoverable;

- Turn Apple TV on and wait until it finds your Mac. A pop-up window will appear that says “Pairing Request from Apple TV”;
