    It's hard to say what went wrong, but let's review the steps again.

    1. Make sure your circle is an image frame
    2. Select the text frame with the Selection tool (black arrow)
    3. Cut or copy it
    4. Click on the image frame (circle) with the Selection tool and paste into

    Make the circle an image frame, cut or copy the text frame, select the image frame and go to Edit>Past Into. The portions of the text frame that lie outside of the circle will be cropped.

    How to check if the circle is an image frame ? I created it with circle tool.

    Isn't there a simpler solution like the clipping mask on photosohp?


    Click on the circle with the Select tool and go to Object>Content. If Graphic is not already checked, check it and it will turn your circle into a graphic frame without changing it to a different shape. In the future, you can make a frame have the content you want by selecting the type in the Tools pallet.

     

    Also, if a tool has a triangle to the right of it, you can click the triangle to show other options of that tool. In the case of the frame tools, you can select whether the shape is a rectangle, an elipse or a polygon.
