Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion question.?

Why can't I use magic. I have it equiped and I hit R2 which is supposed to cast for the PS3 version and nothing happens. Magicka is full too, so I don't know what's up. Are certain classes simply incapable of using magic?

    There are two things that could be wrong, either you don't have enough magika needed to cast the said spell, or the spell is to advanced for your character to use. Every class is capable of using magic spells, but you need to attain certain magic skill levels or magika levels before you can use some spells.

    Check the level requirement for the spell, It is probably too advanced for your character, you might want to start with simple spells.
