Some mate don't follow when insert an assembly in another assembly

Hello all,

My problem is that i create many parts in a folder, create an assembly that seem to be fully constraint, when i move it it move in one block.
I create some other part in another folder, create another assembly fully constraint.
I insert my first assembly in the second assembly successfully for the insert but some mate of the insert assembly seem to be lost (ie: my first assembly was split in 3 parts!!)
I need to rebuild the lost mate!

Why?

    Did you use fix? Fix is not mate - it is only for keeping parts still in the current assembly only.  Group if you want to keep the parts together.
