In an entertaining 0-0 draw a share of the points was just about right in this Pittodrie clash.
The home side's new management team received a rousing reception as they took their places in the dug-out prior to kick-off.
After seven minutes Chris Clark pushed the ball through to Jamie McAllister and his cross found Darren Young, but his header didn't trouble Javier Sanchez Broto.
With 14 minutes gone the away side looked to have opened the scoring, Barry Wilson's run and cross from the right found Eugene Dadi, his header had David Preece beaten but Phil McGuire was on hand to clear off the line.
Back came the Dons with Laurent D'Jaffo heading Eric Deloumeaux's free-kick over from six yards when under pressure from Marvin Andrews.
After 33 minutes Francisco Quino sent Wilson clear of the Dons defence, but as he raced down on goal he screwed his shot off target, mainly thanks to the close attentions of McGuire.
As the half drew to a close both D'Jaffo and Derek Young went close as the Dons laid siege to the Livi goal.
With 46 minutes played Andrews climbed high above the Dons defence to meet Wilson's corner, but with Preece beaten, McNaughton did well to clear the ball off the line.
At the other end Clark's powerful run from midfield saw him carry the ball 15 yards before driving a low shot which Sanchez Broto got down well to hold.
The Almondvale outfit had loud claims for a penalty waived aside by referee Kenny Clark, after Wilson appeared to be impeded by McGuire inside the area.
Another excellent Deloumeaux free-kick found the head of Russell Anderson but the Dons central defender again failed to hit the target.
Aberdeen then had a major let-off after 82 minutes, Deloumeaux was easily dispossessed by Lee Makel on the edge of the area, the ball finding sub Colin McMenamin who prodded the ball home, only for the goal to be disallowed for a marginal offside decision.
The visitors again went close when Wilson's cross was nodded into the path of David Xausa but McGuire was on hand to clear the danger.
Right at the death Sanchez Broto brought out a brilliant one-handed stop to beat out a goalbound Anderson header.
