"Reorganising" in Classic means (re)creating the TM index from scratch. There is no function called "reorganise" in Pro. The TM index is created/updated when you add or create a TM via Translation Memory > New/Select TM. Wordfast Pro will normally say 'TM connection established successfully', which means it was able to (re)index (= "reorganise") the TM. If not, it deems the TM not valid.
