CS6 will not allow me to add another text layer, need help

[Tioga]

I'm making a banner for a web site. I cant add/start another text layer. When I select the type tool and click on the document it takes me back to the existing text layer. On a background copy layer I applied a blend mode, is this why I cant add another text layer? Im missing something and could use some guidance, plz.
CS6 Extended, Windows 7


Thanks in advance, Ron

Hide the first layer of text and try again (Click the little eye on the layer), happens to me sometimes.

Ahh, that worked. Thank You. Im new to CS6 I appreciate it. I thought if I was on a non-text layer, selected the type tool, clicked the document I should get a new text layer.... but apparently not without turning off the original text layer. I reset all tools and it didnt help either.

Thank You so much.
