  1. Right-click and Get Info
  2. Select the desired app under "Open With"
  3. Click "Change All"
If that doesn't stick, try rebuilding the LaunchServices database, by entering the following command in Terminal:
Code:
/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Frameworks/ LaunchServices.framework/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user
