Objects deselect during graph editor/timeline movement

So I'm working on an animation assignment and have finished blocking everything out. The final step is to spline everything and work on the curves. This really can't be done right now though because once I move the timeline to see how the changes I made on the graph editor are working out, the object I'm working on deselects, and the graph editor no longer displays the objects curves. Even moving a single frame ahead will deselect the object, and this makes editing curves extremely difficult for me (considering curves were never my strong suit to begin with).

I've been using the same version of maya (2017) for just over a year and I've never had this problem before. After searching around for people with similar problems, the only thing anyone suggested was switching to the classic graph editor, but the same deselection kept happening. Does anybody know whats going on? Maybe I changed some settings at some point?

No need, I checked out the Auto load and it was already turned off, so I tried turning it back on to see what would happen, and my problem was fixed. Thanks for the help! 🙂
