Highlight a file of the filetype in question. Apple+I. Under Open With, change to the application you desire. Click Change All...
Voila.
Voila.

right click or control+click the file.
Select "Get Info" you will see a drop down list with the default application selected. Select the application you want, and then click the "Change All" button.
This will change all files with that extension to open with the selected program. You will have to repeat for other file types (.txt, .doc, etc..)
