Make sure that your camera/player is actually starting within the tilemap, i.e. a 16x16 tile map with tiles only in the most southeast area of the map will not display unless you move the camera/player closer to them, as the camera defaults to the the northwest corner of the tilemap. Alternatively, cut off any excess transparent tiles from the map to ensure that it will display.

Did you try opening Assets? That is the way I edit them. Also, if that doesn’t work, you may have to open a new project and repasting the old sprites and backgrounds using ctrl-c and ctrl-v.

Welcome, @Caleb_stafford !

It sounds like you might have a block later in your code that overrides your tile map and background. Feel free to share your project so that we can try to help out.
