I tried using a circle as a path and the courser doesn't change to align the text to the path. HELP...is there another way to do this besides using the text warp tool?

If the cursor doesn't change, you probably aren't writing on the path. You need to create a path (in the true photoshop sense), select it, choose text then click on the path. The cursor should change.

There's a paths panel (window>paths) which will allow you to change selections to paths if you need to.

The text warp tool works in a different way to paths and wouldn't be a recommended method for writing around a circle.

If you have more questions, it would help to know exactly which steps you followed.
