Put in a low power eyepiece in then find a power pole or some object about half a kilometer away in the telescope then adjust the finder.
Go gradually smaller until you have it well centered.
You can also purchase a Red Dot Finder or Telrad to help you find stars real quick 
I hope that helps  |
Agreed.
Henry, I suspect that most of us have been through exactly the same problem, at least I have.
Once you get the finderscope aligned with the main OTA you'll be fine. Keep at it.
