TIF files are not recognized by LR5

I have hundreds of .tif files I am trying to import into Lightroom so I can assess if I want to switch from Aperture. All the. TIF were created in Photoshop and may or may not have compression. Lightroom does not recognize them as image files until I go into the folder and put at the end of each photo .tif. Mac OS recognizes them, spotted recognizes them, Photoshop recognizes them. Why is that Lightroom have this problem and there at - it a solution that does not involve me all convert to DNG or add .tif at the end of all my files?

Update: OK, maybe this is the extension after all. Here's what's strange. If I take a TIFF image and remove its extension, see computer fine LR. But if I create a NEW document in Photoshop, save as TIFF (with or without compression), but do NOT add the extension, LR is not see it. Somehow, save with the extension then removing the Finder works very well, something must bet embedded in the document LR 'see' as being a TIFF file. But a blank file saved from Photoshop without extension does not work. Don't know if this is a bug or just something happens when Photoshop originally written the file on disk, such as the removal of the extension do not cause no problems with import. While Jim suggests, you should probably add the extension. If you don't have a bridge, use automate that sits on your Mac:
