We have a TFS 2005 server with some old code and I got VS2012. Should it be possible to connect to the TFS 2005 server from VS2012? Or do I need to install TFS explorer 2010?

TFS Compatibility Matrix - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/vstudio/dd997788.aspx

According to the above link, neither VS2012 nor VS2010 can connect to TFS 2005.

You may need to use the MSSCCI Provider.

    The matrix is wrong, you can connect using VS2010, but not VS2012. I installed VS2010 team explorer and got access to the repository. – Tomas Jansson Nov 13 '12 at 09:16
