missing animations and scenes linked uncorrectly
A while back I got some excellent advice on how to move and organize my daz folders to another drive. I finally took the plunge and braced myself for disaster and made the move. And it went amazingly well. I was shocked at how easy it was. However ever since then the animations have not worked. Can someone please tell me how to hook up the animations again? I've attached a pic of what some of my animations look like now.
Also while searching for the animation stuff I also discovered that the preset scenes were not linked up correctly. Clicking on the day at the beach opened up a dragon scene instead. I reinstalled the beach scene but realize I need to dig more into parts of daz I don't use often to make sure everything is working.

Have you created your own categories/tags/smart content? Assuming you haven't:
1) From the Content Library pane options menu (rectangle with horizonatl lines in the upper corner) > Content DB Maintenance > Reset Database
2) From the same options menu > Content Directory Manager, make sure both "Daz Studio Formats" and "Poser Formats" are pointing to the correct location
3) Options menu > Content DB Maintenance > Re-Import Metadata
Thanks Fixmypcmike. If I reset and reimport metadata will it delete the files I purchased from outside sources and hand installed?
It won't delete the files. If you categorized them and didn't export user data it will lose those links, but the actual files will remain.
Ok I did all of that and the animations still do not work. Is it possible that is because I moved them to another drive? Even the ones that installed this week do not work. I also just noticed that the daz animate tab is no longer at the bottom. Screen shot included.
