I have multiple computers and for non-retina ones I use some extension that is not working well with retina ones. So I like to disable this extension on my retina computers, but enable them on non-retina ones. Chrome seems to sync the "enable" and "disable" - I want to disable this feature - but I want to keep the syncing, just not syncing enable or disable. Can this be done?

If you are on windows, use this (The answer from WORMSS should do)
If you are on Mac, go to ~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/Extensions by pressing CMD+Shift+G after pressing on the desktop or Finder. Go to the page of your extension (eg. this) and copy the 'random' letters at the end (eg. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/merge-windows/adjadgadeebehakpgamlnafmdkegkmph). Now find that folder in the Extensions folder.(this is step 1).
Now, carry on with the link I mentioned at the beginning, it should work.
Of course, there is always the option to manually do everything but that could take some time. The first option will need repeating every update, but you could eventually make an applescript to automate this for you - although I do not know how to do that, I'm sure a quick Google should help. The other will have to be updated every time you want a new extension, it all depends on how much time you have and how many computers /extensions you have.
