Hello everyone
I'll make it quick to not bother anyone. So my old Imac is down and my old lightroom 5 vesion with it. I have a lightroom catalog file on a hard disk. My question is, can I import this catalog with every info to the ipad version of lightroom

No. Lr Mobile won't use your catalog

You can import the photos from that catalog into Lightroom, or Lightroom on the web, and they will show up in Lightroom on your iPad. This of course requires a Creative Cloud subscription. The syncing between devices works because everything is in the cloud. Any edits, or other metadata you applied to the photos in Lightroom 5 won't come along with them, unless you saved the metadata externally.

I think the general advice here from both Bob and Theresa is that you need to update your LR version to take full advantage of its abilities, which will mean a subscription.
