Question about Mac Garage Band and sheet music?

Question

I have been producing my own music using Garage Band on my Mac for a few years now and I love it. However, is there a program that exists where I can take my finished product and somehow arrange it onto sheet music?

For someone like me who doesn't really read music too well but loves to write and create songs.....a program like this would be most helpful so that I can communicate my music to other musicians who do know how to read music.

Thanks in advance for your help

I don't know how much you'll be able to convert what you've already done. I'm new to MAC. I've been using Finale for years.
On the MAC, I recently obtained Finale Song Writer pro which is a good compolsition tool, especially since it only costs $60 instead of the typical $500 for full-blown finale.
This will let you compose a score with multiple instruments, ensembles, voices, etc... and it plays it back, saves as midi, or aac, etc.. 
I usually go the other way around. I compose the song in finale, then go to garage band and record my performance of what I've written.
Maybe there's an easier way.  I'm more of a network person, so a lot of this software interoperability illudes me often.

You might try calling the Apple Store. They may be able to recommend some software for you to accomplish this. I think I have heard of of software in the past that would do that. I can't remember the name of it. Plus that was in OS 9 and wouldn't be available today.
