None of the newer LaCie products come with Lightscribe any longer - I used to have a burner which had that included, but that was more than 4 years ago. Amazon must be selling old stock leftovers. I checked the LaCie site and they do have an updater available, but that is also not very recent either as it requires 10.3.9 as a minimum - but, here is the link:

I would guess that the old software simply is not compatible with Yosemite. You can either get newer software or use an older Mac with an older OS.

I have not tried this, but I have a different software from this company: Swift Publisher and that has been great for me (I use it to create my artwork and (birthday) cards.


They offer a trial, so you can try and see if you like it.
