Krasimir, 
Not sure what you want to do here. You don't say why you moved the Frame
file. 
If you move a Frame file using the file manager, links to imported
graphics break. In this case, reimport the graphic.  
If you do Save As to make a copy of a Frame file in a new location using
a new name, the file will keep links to imported graphics. If you want
to import an edited graphic rather than the original, import the edited
one.

well, that is the problem - i import the edited graphic in a FM file
that has a new name in a new location, but the FM file shows the old
graphic, not the edited...

So delete the old graphic and import the edited one in its place.

sounds good, but unfortunately that is the problem - for some reason
the edited graphic keeps the reference to the previous one - and i
thought that maybe there is a way to edit the HTTP path...

Explain more about your document. 
You have a Frame file that contains a graphic imported by reference.
Does the edited version of the graphic file have a different name from
the original? What happens when you delete the existing graphic and try
to import the edited one?

I've read this thread a few time and I'm not getting it. But I can say this 
few things:
- Moved FM files tend to look in the same location for graphics. If that same 
location is in the same folder as the document or within a subfolder that 
moved with it, it will find them. If the subfolder got left behind, it will 
fail.

- If you edit a graphic and reimport it and you get the old graphic, it's 
human error. You either edited the wrong graphic or imported the wrong one 
... it's not a Frame bug.

It sounds like you just need to delete the old graphic, and import the 
correct one. 

Well, I deleted the old graphic, and then imported the edited one -
and for some reason FM keeps the path to the old one...
Now, the files are checked out from Perforce, and maybe that causes
the trouble. The FM files were renamed, and I am working with the
renamed files now. But even though I checked in the new graphic, I
still get the old one...

Then you're not doing something right. Period. Frame does not have a mind of 
its own to choose a path; that's something I would expect of Word.

10x for your help - that's exactly what I was wondering - can FM keep
the old path. Now I know it can't be FM...
I updated my Perforce version, and then checked out and imported the
graphic again - and this time it worked...
Thanks for your help in that matter, :-)

Somehow your changes were either not saved, not retained, or overwritten.
