Which shiny orb tut? There are two... I'm guessing you mean the one in Flash, where it clearly states in step six to copy and paste the first circle.

Worked fine to me.
"Select the first filled circle and copy it (Ctrl+C), create a new layer and "Paste it in Place" onto the new layer (Ctrl+Shift+V)"
You have 2 circles after you paste the first one.

If you go through the tutorial thoroughly it will work and make perfect sense (at least it does to me)

I just read it through and it makes perfect sense to me! I don't understand what all the commotion is about :h:

Yes actually it does make perfect sense

In part 2. it says get out the oval tool and draw a circle and then it mentions about the gradient you use.

then is section 6. it says:

Select the first filled circle and copy it (Ctrl+C), create a new layer and "Paste it in Place" onto the new layer (Ctrl+Shift+V).

So now you've got one on the back with a linear gradient and one on a layer above that with a radial gradient.
Then in section 8. it says

Make another copy of the circle by selecting the second filled circle and copying it (Ctrl+C). Then create a new layer and "Paste it in Place" onto the new layer (Ctrl+Shift+V).

So now you've got the back circle the second circle and now the front circle (with another radial gradient)

It all makes perfect sense. Listen to Syko It all makes perfect sense
