USED TO + ING
Question 14 
Having  spent time abroad when I was a student, I found it easier to get used to ________ in another country

Why "used to live" is incorrect in this context??
Why cannot say "used to live"??

Answer

Because we use 'used to' in two ways.

1. I used to live there. This means I lived there in the past, but do not live there any more.
For example:
Barack Obama used to be President of the USA
Christiano Ronaldo used to play for Manchester United

2. I am used to living there. Means that living there is something normal. I am accustomed to it.
When I started my new job I didn't like the hours. But, now I am used to working at 7am
Before I lived in India I never had curry, but I am used to eating spicy food.

Answer

You can say "Used to living" not used to live.
