How do I write harmonies with different note values?

I'm new to GarageBand and have been working with the score on the software grand piano. At first, I'll write a melody line and then go back to add harmony. When I try to add a harmony that has a different rhythm, GarageBand automatically changes the melody to match the rhythm of the harmony. I'm trying to write the parts in the same staff so that the piano part can all be printed on the same page. Any thoughts/help on how to write the piece with different rhythms in one measure?

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.4)

Have you tried to click the clef to get two lines of notation? I enter the chords in the bass clef line, if I need a different rhythm, for example: Or make the edits in piano roll.
