Explore native MM livePreview code to see in details how it works.
Also, I think you should check items in contents, which is the clip

}
[/code]
The strange thing is that in the component's FLA I can drag as many instances

I had the same problem with my Flowchart components. Basically, things were

Do you subclass UIComponent or just MovieClip?
What code do you use for onUpdate?
Try to trace components names etc while in live preview.
