I tried to make a steak in maya. When i try the automatic map, hundreds of pieces pop up in the gray box. Most of the pieces are short lines and small diagonals. What did i do wrong?

Try using the other types of mapping, as Automatic sometimes works against you (depending on the shape of your object).
Maybe select the faces on the top of the steak and use Planar Mapping from a chosen axis, do teh same for the bottom faces, and maybe try another one.. even automatic for the sides. Stitch them together and see how you go.
UV Mapping is about looking at your object from all sides and angles, and figuring out how to best unwrap it. It's not always easy, but it does become easier the more you do it.

I'm trying to UV texture the receiver of an M4 rifle but it's pretty detailed even without any smoothing i'm having trouble doing the unfold bit, when i uv map it its a grid of all sorts of squares i cant tell which is which and if i go cylindrical mode it gives me a distorted uv ! ur vidz are gr8 maybe im out of my depth hah
