I don't think there is any way to answer your question without a specific example of your problem.

This help page states:

The warning indicates that the solve command cannot confirm that the solution set returned is complete.
Solution: Try to reformulate the problem.
For additional assistance, contact Maple Technical Support or post your problem on MaplePrimes.

Then it gives a single example of this problem:

solve(sin(y*x) < 0, x);

Warning, solutions may have been lost

_SolutionsMayBeLost;
                                    true

But I find it incomplete as it does not show how to reformulate this problem. I beleive that some more complete examples would be very useful.

I believe it first displays all the solutions it has, then it says "some solutions may have been lost"
