After I have created a motion tracking mask, when I go back frame by frame to touch up the edges my image disappears. I can get the image to reappear by right clicking the panel and changing the quality setting, but as soon as I advance to the next frame the image disappears again.

That's very strange. I tried it on an existing project [CDR (3).cds] and I saw the same issue with motion tracking not working, but when I created a new project and imported the same clip, everything worked normally. I also got it to work by creating a new workspace, which keeps the existing media clips in the library.

Does creating a new project or new workspace solve the issue on your system?

Hi. I tried both of your suggestions. Both of them improved my situation, but the problem persists. I can now go about 10 frames before the image disappears.

That sounds like a different problem.

I'm guessing that CDR isn't able to track the object due to changes in the video and would normally display this message, but you've probably already checked the Don't show again box:
