Hi Kimwhite1,
Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities! I understand you are trying to pair your older trackpad with your new Mac. I am happy to help.
First, review the steps for set up here: Set up your Apple wireless mouse, keyboard, and trackpad - Apple Support. If you still can't get your trackpad connected, try the steps under, 'Your device isn't recognized by your Mac', in this article: If your Apple wireless mouse, keyboard, or trackpad isn't working as expected - Apple Support. I would also recommend restarting your Mac: How to turn your Mac on or off - Apple Support.
If you need continued support, reach back out with an update on your issue.
Regards.
