Which model Mac do you have?
You need to download Origin from https://www.origin.com/gbr/en-us/store/download then open Origin and login using your EA account details you purchased the game through. Then download and install the game through Origin.
@hannahparks if your situation is the same as the OP's (ie you had a PC and now have a Mac) I'm afraid that you WILL have to purchase the game again, you can't just swap the Windows version for the Mac one.
I guess you could try installing Windows via Boot Camp (Intel Macs only) or running the game via Windows running through Parallels (you'll struggle if you have a MacBook Air, though) otherwise you will need to buy the game again.
