After I unwrap in my current project file the texture never appears in rendered mode what could I be doing wrong? When I watch tutorials they unwrap and the texture automatically appears on the object you are working on.

$\begingroup$ Are you in textured view (Alt Z)? (related) $\endgroup$– gandalf3Commented Nov 18, 2015 at 20:31

$\begingroup$ when I check textured view the object is black and not what I have in the uv editor... I don't know what I am doing wrong I selected the image and unwrap the object yet nothing appears in rendered view or textured view. $\endgroup$– ItsMeBrandonDCommented Nov 18, 2015 at 20:48

$\begingroup$ In blender internal you have to switch display mode from multitexture to GLSL (under shading in in 3d-view) for the texture to appear in texture view. Don't know about cycles. $\endgroup$– slowpulseboyCommented Nov 18, 2015 at 21:31

1$\begingroup$ Are you using Blender internal or Cycles? Can you edit your question and add images showing the UV/image editor and the material and texture setups on the properties panel? $\endgroup$– user1853Commented Nov 19, 2015 at 0:12

$\begingroup$ You need to create a material, then assign a texture to it that uses the UV mapping. $\endgroup$– user1853Commented Jun 15, 2016 at 16:58

Mark out the seam on the mesh in the 3D View window. Open a UV/Image Editor window. Make sure the whole mesh is selected in the 3D view (press A key a couple of times if necessary). Then select Unwrap (or press U while mouse is over 3D View).
You should then see the unwrapped model in the UV/Image editor window.
