how do I get my mac to type my farsi fonts

You need to enable a Persian keyboard. This will tell you how

Mac OS X comes with three different Persian keyboards. Enable them all, try them out, see which one you prefer. (You can also install a different one, if you choose.) Then use the Geeza Pro font to begin with.

There are quite a few other resources, which you can find by googling. I suggest a closer look at Mellel

It's an excellent Mac word processor; moreover, it was designed specifically for RTL languages.

I also suggest checking the Iranian Mac User Forum, where you are likely to find more specific advice

Note that MS Word for Mac and Apple Pages are unsuitable for Farsi. The Mellel recommended by fane_j is the best, and TextEdit, Nisus Writer, and Open/Neo/LibreOffice should also work OK. For Adobe apps it is best to use a special "ME" version.
