I'm not so sure... Maybe ''Google It" or "Youtube it"... If it doesn't tell you, then i don't think you can...
Sorry, I never had a mac before so im not sure

This is what i did and it worked for me maybe it will work for you aswell.

Open Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Bluetooth and disable Bluetooth on Mac as well as any other nearby Macs or devices which will try to pair with and confuse the controller.
Reset PS3 controller by inserting paperclip into pinhole near L2 button.
Connect PS3 controller to Mac with USB cable.
Enable Bluetooth.
Press “PS” button for 1-2 seconds until the red lights flash.
Unplug USB cable.
Click the “+” icon in the preferences to open the Bluetooth Setup Assistant.
