If you mean, e.g. "I used to do that when I was a kid," then you can say either "Ich habe das frueher als Kind getan" (where the perfect tense and the adverb "fruher" convey the sense of "used to"), or you can use this structure "Ich pflegte, das als Kind zu tun" (where "pflegen...zu" means "used to"--but this structure is less common).
If you mean, "I am used to it," then "ich bin das gewohnt" or "ich bin daran gewoehnt."
