Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 while using GarageBand!!!!!!

I Need Help!!!!!

I recently purchased the new iMac 2013 running the new operating system Maverick OS X to build my home studio. I purchased Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 (i heard it was the best). So i decided to give it a try it; I used GarageBand to record and while i'm recording i hear clicking sounds and sounds goes in and out. So, i restart the program and it will work for a couple a mins, then Garageband will crashes. Showing a list of reasons why it did. So i contact Apple Support, got Gargeband to stop crashing but when i playback my recording the audio track delays

I need help!!!

is my interface, should i return it or buy an different one? If so, which one do you recommand

~Thank You

Yikes. Man, I'm personally having somewhat of a similar dilemma with a Scarlet 2i2 connected to a Mac Mini running Garageband.

I can't seem to get the Mini's system preferences to recognize the 2i2 as the Input device, so even though I can hear the bass guitar I connect to the 2i2 (i.e. the 2i2 is outputting signal), Garagband isn't recognizing the 2i2 so there's no signal going IN to it. Very frustrating.
