I have seen TIFF described as Thousands of Incompatible File
Formats.  On the rare occasions when I've tried using tiffs in the
gimp I've often seen a lot of error messages.  But since the gimp
seems to be able to open your tiff, I suggest that you try saving it
as a png and then working on the png.

No idea if that will help, and I suspect that the problem may be
that the tiff is just too big for this tool.
