The game is linked to your Origin ID, not whatever computer you are using. Make sure you are logged into Origin on your iMac using the same account details you used on your Windows PC. Once you are logged in you can then download it from your games library.

Thank you, I guess now I have to try and remember my old origin account, it appears I have two!

Hi @Giffendulum,

If having two accounts is a problem, under certain circumstances two accounts can be "merged" into one. Please, take a look to this article on EA Help for more information: https://help.ea.com/en/help/account/linking-accounts-and-persona-transfers/

If you are interested, then you would need to talk to an EA adviser through EA Help.
