I had the same problem.please do the following it may help you: By Default List View Threshold set at only 5,000 items this is because of Sharepoint server performance.

To Change the LVT:

  2. Go to Application Management
  3. Manage Web Applications
  4. Select your application
  5. Click General Settings at the ribbon
  6. Select Resource Throttling
  7. List View Threshold limit --> change the value to your need.
  8. Also change the List View Threshold for Auditors and Administrators.if you are a administrator.

Click OK to save it.
