When I open a file (from website) in ff without saving it. Firefox automatically downloads it to my desktop and then opens it. Is there a way to save it to a specific location instead of desktop? Things become very cluttered when viewing multiple documents online.

I think this is something that's still broken on the Mac version of Firefox.

To avoid a Desktop full of downloaded PDFs, you might try PDF download and PDF Browser plugin in conjunction with Adobe Reader.
