I beleve people are still having problems updating with LiveUpdate. Now, the developers explain the situation like this: as huge amout of users is updating at the same time, the system automatically regulates the number of simulataneous downloads. Meaning that some users will be cut off when trying to upgrade. Under "the system" they mean not their server of course, but the brokers servers.

Now, there are 2 ways to upgrade, as far as I can see this:
1. Either go to your brokers site and download the new build off the site and then manually install it. That is IF they made the latest 200 Build available on their site.
2. Download the latest build off the MetaQuotes site and install it. In there case, there are 2 things to keep in mind:
a. If you are using a white-label version of the terminal (HOW TO CHECK: your broker changed its name [not MetaTrader, but Velosity Trader], changed some pictures in the installer, pictures in the ABOUT dialog, some default settings): I HAVE NO IDEA how this will install on such a version. However, THEORHETICALLY (see point b. below) it should not touch any setting files.
b. If you are using an "original" MetaTrader (downloaded from MetaQuotes) it should be fine. Developers assure no settings will be touched while updating.

Hope this helps.



Cheers,
