With the Nexstar if you choose a 3 star alignment you can point it at any 3 bright objects and the mount will work it out.
If you use 1 or 2 star alignment you do have to be able to identify stars from the list.
Try a 1 star alignment. Then goto any other star that you do know. It may not land spot this star and you may have to move it to center it. Then press and hold to Align button to align on that star. You now have a 2 star alignment.
At any time you can Align on any object you are viewing, doing this improves its accuracy in that general area of the sky.
