I have a small office and we all store and use notebooks on our
server. We moved all of our data to a new server yesterday, and now
when we try to open the notebooks we get a message that says: "OneNote
needs a password to sync some of your notebooks", and we are unable to
open the notebooks. Interestingly, if we open the notebook through a
mapped drive to the location, we get the error. But, if we navigate
directly to the notebook through the network, it will open with no
error. We are having no other problems with this mapped drive.
Thanks!

You didn't mention your OS, but if we talk about Vista then you may look
into this discussion:

Operating system is Windows XP on the workstations and Small Business
Server 2008 on the server. Thanks!

2nd try: Are you using WebDAV on your Server ?
There are known issues with Onenote notebooks residing on Web servers:

I don't think I am running WebDAV. I don't even know what that is.
We are not hosting a website on that server. Can you let me know how
to check this out?

Interestingly, this problem seed to have gone away for a couple of
days, and is now back.

WebDAV:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebDAV

If you are not running IIS on that server then WebDAV cannot be the problem.

Sorry, I cannot help you any further.
