Set the scope up during the day as a double check that everything is working okay, focus on a far away tree or as suggested a power pole or streetlamp.
Align the finderscope to the image in the telescope.

Then have a go at night on the moon and get focused and aligned a bit better. Then when your eyes recover, have a hunt for Jupiter. It will be worth it once it pops into view.
