Without knowing details, it's impossible to give a definite answer, but here are a couple of thoughts:

If the "links" aren't connected, they may not have been set up properly.

If you move some files, the links won't stay connected -- the relative path from one file to another must remain constant.

If the link is to a graphic imported into a container field, and you move the files (even if you keep the relative path constant), links can get broken.

The thing about computers is that they're stupid -- they'll only do exactly what you tell them to do. If your instructions aren't absolutely correct, you won't get the desired result. This is known as the GIGO law (for Garbage In, Garbage Out). Doublecheck everything.
