I picked up a new Macbook Pro and brought over all my stuff from my old MacBook Pro and all went well but it keeps asking every few days what I want to do while syncing, ie: Merge Info, replace info on computer, replace info on server. Has anyone else had this issue and what did you do to resolve it? I have merged and repalced on computer and it keeps asking. None of my other Macs are doing this.

On the affected computer system (running 10.5?), go to MobileMe preferences, go to the Sync tab->Advanced, and Unregister the new MacBook Pro. On 10.6, if you upgraded, you'll have to select the new MacBook Pro, tell it to Stop Syncing Computer, then confirm you want to Unregister that computer. Follow that up by signing out of MobileMe. Restart the computer, sign back in to the MobileMe preferences. Re-enable syncing, re-select the categories you want to sync, then click Sync Now. If this doesn't fix it, resetting Sync History via iSync preferences or as directed by this article will be the next steps to proceed with.
