Change Restrictions preferences in the Apple TV app on Mac
In the Apple TV app on your Mac, use the Restrictions pane in TV preferences to prevent access to the iTunes Store, shared libraries, and certain types of content. For computers with multiple user accounts, you can set different controls for specific users but still allow unrestricted access from administrator accounts.
To change these preferences, choose TV > Preferences, then click Restrictions.
Note: Before making changes, you must click the lock and type your administrator password.
