Hi treasa, welcome!
First, have you read the sticky thread started by Obsessed2 for new Pocket eDGe owners? It should answer most of your questions about registering and first steps.
If you have a problem please give as much detail as you can so we can help. For instance, do you have a Pocket eDGe or the larger (10") version? What do you see on the screens? If you know, what version of the operating system is your device running?
