If you're in object mode and your texture isn't showing up in the 3D view, it's probably because you're using the wrong texture mode. Textures in blender have three different modes: diffuse, glossy, and specular. Each one of these modes affects how the texture is lit and how it interacts with other objects in the scene.
If you're trying to texture a model and the texture isn't showing up, make sure you're in the correct mode. To change modes, open up the Textures tab in the Properties window and select the mode you want from the drop-down menu.
If you're still having trouble, try resetting your texture settings. To do this, go to the Textures tab and click the Reset button. This will reset all of the texture settings for the selected object.
