Backup Exec 2012 restore tape to new server

I have Backup Exec 2012 on Server A and Server B. I want to restore to Server B a Tape created on Server A.  Even after I do the Inventory and Catalog the tape on Server B I still do not see the Tape to Restore.

You don't browse by tape name to do restores in 2012, you find the name of the server that was on the tape in the "Backup and Restore" section and then use the restore option against that server name (redirection if needed comes later)

Make sure you have selected appropriate date range in the restore window.

If the FQDN and the Machine(Netbios style) name might have been used for the server that you backed up, then make sure if both an object named by FQDN and and object named with just the servername have been tried (if they both exist) as you might find it is the other one that un-greys the restore button.
