Are you clicking on the text icon? Its T on the left hand side of page in photoshop! Make sure you have deselected before you click on the T icon

Click and hold on the T icon make sure Horizontal type tool is selected, then click anywhere in your sig, you will get a flashing cursor dont drag the mouse at this point otherwise youll get a box with nothinhg in it because you have not typed anything then type what you want!

it seems to be typing something but the lettering is so small it's not readable it just looks like a dotted line, i've tryed adjusting the font size to the maximum but does'nt seem to make any difference

Click text layer, highlight what youve typed then increse point size, if that doesnt work double click the move tool a box will outline your text then go to image/ resize/scale try and make it bigger, drag from a corner of the box.
