jQuery.autocomplete gives TypeError in Firefox

So I have the following code:

jQuery('#id').live('keyup.autocomplete', function () {
    jQuery(this).autocomplete({
        source: function (request, response) {
            jQuery.getJSON("link?callback=?", {
                format: 'jsonp',
                ...
            }, response);
        },
        minLength: 2,
        selectFirst: true,
        select: function (event, ui) {
                ...
        }
    })
});

In Firefox when I try to use the input it give me:

TypeError: jQuery(this).autocomplete is not a function
[Break On This Error]   

select: function( event, ui ) {

This error is only in Firefox, on all other browsers it works all fine. Any ideas?

As of jQuery 1.7, the .live() method is deprecated. Use .on() to attach event handlers. Users of older versions of jQuery should use .delegate() in preference to .live().

$(selector).live(events, data, handler); // jQuery 1.3+

$(document).delegate(selector, events, data, handler); // jQuery 1.4.3+

$(document).on(events, selector, data, handler); // jQuery 1.7+

Please refer to the link below http://api.jquery.com/live/
