Best advice is to first try upgrading Micro-Manager to the most recent version, and if that doesn't work, then send us a Problem Report from the Help menu in which you attempt to run live mode. If you're worried about losing your old install, you can just install the new version of Micro-Manager in a different directory. That way you can switch between them freely (though you should only have one instance of Micro-Manager running at any time, regardless of version).
