You can show the guide as follows:

Select View > Show > Guides

You can place a guide as follows;

Select View > New guide > select Vertical or Horizontal orientation > click OK.

Even you can drag from the horizontal ruler to create a horizontal guide and drag from the vertical ruler to create vertical guide.

If you want to lock the guides View > Lock guides

When you want to move the guides do the following;

Select move tool > position the pointer over the guide (you can see this as it is getting double headed when you position exactly).

As you want to align the guide you have to follow the below guidelines;

Align the guides with the ruler ticks (press and hold the shift when you drag the guide).

Thanks
