try reading the manual(a must imho, either to refresh memory or learn from beginning) or search youtube for the tutorials, theres plenty of tutorial videos from there.
these are the few sites with info/video as well

for midi controller(actually doesnt matter which one you are using as long its being supported by live), go get the drivers first from m audio site and install beforehand. Within ableton, axiom controller is one of the control surface supported, so just a matter of selecting it in the midi folder, choose the correct midi in/out port, the controls on the controller should be mapped accordingly to live. Usually faders can be mapped automatically to volume, pan, knobs to macro control and pad to drum rack etc. For this, check on m audio site or the manual to see if theres any info on it.
For reason, theres paid tutorial and also free ones from youtube, can check from there.
to use both, check out individual manual on rewire portion, so that reason can be used as vsti within live.
Next thing, is to trial and error and have fun.

heh, pardon, not too sure bout that
Try searching up on using garage band as rewire host. As long it can support rewire, most likely it can be done. Try checking out gb forum or reason forum i guess.
