If I may suggest, I think the simplest solution is to buy something like a Tascam or Zoom SD Card audio recorder. There are alternative Audio to digital boxes out there but these would be around the same kind of price I think. They also would make good stand-alone recording devices if you are at all intererested in recording audio.
I have also had minor issues with what I would call latency (brief time periods when the sound is not recorded meaning that over a whole hour the file is just a little shorter than it should be) when recording audio direct into a Mac. My stand alone recorder does not exhibit this.
