Steps:

1. Created template of Task List in 2010.
2. Uploaded the same in 2013 , under Site Setting >> List Template
3. When I am adding an app and searching for that template , not able to see it.

Answer 1

I don't think it is that straight forward.

1. First Export List using Central Admin Backup Restore option (List.cmp)
2. Change extension from cmp to cab
3. Extract files to a folder
4. Open file SystemData.XML and change version 14.0.0.0 to 15.0.0.0
5. Change Build to the Build Version of your server. You can use PowerShell to find it out
6. Now re pack the folder into .cab file using CabPack
7. Change extension to cmp

8. Open Management Shell in 2013 and execute below command

   Import-SPWeb -Identity http://siteurl -Path cmpfilepath.cmp -verbose
