[spathira (Sumith)]

Hello,
I am new to this forum and I hope my question is OK here.
I just bought a Celestron 6SE telescope but having problems with alignment. I live in northeast coast of NSW, just south of Byron Bay. Initially, I could not find the southern hemisphere stars in the Hand Control.
Today I managed to use three stars to align (Sirius, betelegeuse and archernar). It came up with "successfull" but when I tried to search Jupiter in went completely other way. I am not sure whether it is aligning with southern hemisphere stars or I am doing something terribly wrong.

Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.
