First off I am using Adobe Illustrator CS6 and I have an image that has a white stroke and a transparent background. Whenever I try to use image trace a white background fills up the transparent areas and using the ignore white setting removes all the white from my image which I dont want to happen. Anybody know how I can keep my transparent background, and my white colors in my logo while using image trace?

Trace your image - without being concerned over the white stroke.
Expand the trace
Add a white stroke to the resulting Group via the Appearance Panel.

Fill the background with a color your image does not use, like red, lime green or pink. Then trace as normal. Expand, then just select the background color with the magic wand tool and hit delete.
