Please could you click on the saves folder once to select it then go to File > Get Info. Under the General > Where section near the top of the info window please copy and paste the location of the folder here.

That's why they aren't loading, because they are on an external drive. The game will only look in Documents > Electronic Arts for a Sims 4 folder containing saves etc. If it cannot find one it will recreate the Sims 4 folder (unless you have created a symlink to store the folder on the external and create an alias in the local Electronic Arts folder?).
Can you move the saves into the local Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 folder > saves folder, where the new save should be that you created?- 6 years ago
I will try that! I have not had any issues previously, and have been using the seagate for a few months now to save space! I thought I had everything transferred over properly, and even have origin set to know that games are installed and on the drive.
