Well ofcourse there are no textures built in (except for the CHECKS on). You need to import you textures. All basic manual stuff this.

what version are you using? 0.95 or 0.97d? i had texture capability with 0.95 and i still have it with 0.97d. post a screenshot of your materials dialog and i'll try to help you out.

Anim8or has no preset textures, aside from the checkerboard pattern.  There are, however, LOADS of textures available on the web (simply search for "textures"), or you can create your own, from photos and/or various paint-type programs.  You can load a texture into the desired channel (normally diffuse) by clicking on the "md" button, and navigating to where you have the texture (usuallya JPEG). 

Here's some useful links:

If your going to use a texture from the net be sure to respect copyright and credit the site you got them from.
