I can't get a material with texture to be placed in the center of the object

Looking after a good guide, showing how to automatic place texture materialen on the right place on my object. (Center)

See attach image
No. 1. in the picture shows where the texture material is placed when I put the material on the object.
I have tried ( No.2) to move around the material but cannot get it placed properly.

PS: Sometime there is showing 2 arrows to move materials up/down and other time these 2 arrows isn't be showing

Help is sought.
