Hi Lings,
if you couldn't see anything at all it sounds like your finderscope isn't lined up. Even an 'Out of Collimation' scope will show you something.
Wack in your highest number eyepiece eg: 30mm or thereabouts and get a bright star in the eyepiece. Then while it's in the eyepiece, adjust the finderscope to be on the same star. Then to test it, move the scope and aim it at another star or Jupiter and keep moving the scope gently until the new object is in the centre of the finderscope. The object should now be in the eyepiece too. Tell us how you go with that before we move on to the next bit.
