Serious issue.

Suddenly Adobe isn't letting me save my entire timeline. It only saves part of it. What is going on? This is going to be a serious problem if I can't save my whole AMV...

By save I mean save as a video file. Export the whole timeline as a video.

I'm not sure I'm following. Options where? I've been going into File - export timeline - movie.

There's 'settings' when I go to save the video file, but that's all. And I don't see anything in there that would explain why the entire timeline isn't being saved.

After clicking settings you'll see box where you select your compressor. Under that you will see a Range drop down box, which should be set to "Work Area Bar." Try changing that to "Entire Project."

That seems to be working, thanks a bunch! I have no idea why it switched like that.

It is set to "Work Area Bar" by default IIRC. If you happened to click weird on your timeline, you can accidentally trim the work bar in the timeline and if you don't notice, that can happen. I always keep it at "Entire Project" unless I'm cutting out specific parts for either AE work or betas.

Ahh. Awesome, thanks
