I'm not sure Sibelius is better than Finale at midi import. Both seem to
make quite a mess of it. in my experience, Sibelius seems to leave more
"debris" around while Finale gives a cleaner initial look but tends to
"truncate" complex data.
MusicXML is very effective but, unlike Finale, Sibelius requires you to
buy the full plug-in to export MusicXML. So if you don't have the
plug-in, this may not be a good choice. Importing MusicXMLis, however,
free and has become the best method for moving from Finale to Sibelius.

Does Logic work with MusicXML? If it does (www.recordare.com should
be able to tell you if it does) have your friend export the file as
MusicXML, as it is so much more accurate than Finale's midi import.
Isn't Sibelius much better with MIDI import? If so, and it's
available, what about importing the MIDI into Sibelius, then
exporting to XML for import into Finale.
Lots of steps, but might be easier if the software is all available.
