Checking migrated solution into new version of TFS

I have recently migrated a number of apps created in Visual Studio versions 2005, 2008, and 2010 to VS2013. When I tried to check them into our TFS install, I was greeted with a message telling me that I needed to use a newer version (of TFS).

I contacted our server admin and got a share set up on a new version of tfs.

How the heck do I go about adding to the new TFS share? It is showing on the server (with the plus signs), but when I try to check-in the code, it complains at me telling me to first create a Team Project.

Do I need to create a blank Team project then copy all of my files in, or is there a shorter way?

Thanks in advance.

If you have an existing TFS server then you should upgrade it rate than copy stuff to a new server. It sounds like your existing server is TFS 2008 so you would need to upgrade to 2012 and then to 2013. No big deal, just a little more rigmarole.

If you are set on just pushing your code to a new server I would instead recommend that you create an account with Visual Studio Online (http://tfs.visualstudio.com) and use that.

If you are just going to shove it in the new TFS 2013 server that your infrastructure guy knocked together then you will need to create a Team Project first.
