Will this adapter work will previous MacBooks? Like if I have a previous gen MacBook Pro can I use this adapter? Or do I need the specific one?

Answer
No it will not. An older MagSafe will work with MagSafe 2 via the new adapter but it will not work the other way.

No. This adapter is meant for use only on the new Macbook Pro with Retina display. It is not backwards compatible. The Magsafe to Magsafe 2 converter does not work with this product.

No, the magsafe 2 85w is specifically built for the retina macbook pro's thin design.
