Meade ETX90

Need some advice:
I purchased. Meade ETX90 as a travel scope as my Celestron 925 is too big and heavy to carry in our caravan. For the life of me I cannot polar align this unit???
As an example, if you point it towards the south and it skews to the first alignment Star, it is so far off, it is not possible to recover for a second star! I have tried all the suggestions in the manual and no joy. Without any successful alignment it is impossible to use any tracking for observation let alone any Astrophotography?
Stephen
