This is frustrating.  I have thee Macs and an Apple TV.  Two of the three Macs can "see" my Apple TV (A-TV shows up under "Devices" in iTunes) but not the third.  We are all using the same network.  I have reinstalled iTunes on the mac that can't see the Apple TV.  I've rebooted... everything, twice at least and I've exhausted Apple's suggestions what to do about the problem.  I have even turned off all firewalling on the affected machine.  No luck.

Now here's the weird thing - I *AM* able to stream audio from iTunes to the Apple TV from the affected machine but the Apple TV will NOT show up under Devices so that I might be able to stream video.  It's really annoying.  If this helps here's the final oddity: I used to be able to stream video from the affected machine to the Apple TV but then the hard drive died and that brought with it a complete rebuild of the machine. Following the new HD install I can't see the Apple TV under devices.  I know Bonjour is working because I can chat within my house via Jabber and print to the Bounjour printer upstairs (along with a list of other Bonjour specific things).

I won't declare defeat on the matter.  I can't actually.  But I do need to call in some reinforcements.  Any ideas, suggestions?
