On F14:

$ /usr/sbin/liveusb\-creator &
[1]    13654
$ You must run this application as root

[1] +  Done(1)                 /usr/sbin/liveusb\-creator &

So, on F14, it will not even let the regular user run it.
So, I am not sure if or why your version asked you for
the root password.

At any rate,  I su'ed to root and
# /usr/sbin/liveusb\-creator
**
GLib-GIO:ERROR:gdbusconnection.c:2270:initable_init: assertion failed: 
(connection->initialization_error == NULL)
Abort(coredump)

My version is  liveusb-creator-3.9.3-1.fc14.noarch
