Yeah, that's what you have to do.  When you created a mirror of your 
iDisk on your desktop, it only allocated 100 MB of space to said 
mirror.  I just went to System Preferences, clicked on the .Mac icon, 
and then unchecked and re-checked "Create a local copy of your iDisk."  
Sure, it took a little while to re-sync with the .Mac server, but it 
all worked in the background and no more annoying message.
