In Finder, highlight any file with the right extension (say *.mobi to start), press Cmd-I for Get Info. Look at the "Open with" section (you may need to expand it). You can use the pull down menu to change the application you want to use, then press the Change All button so all *.mobi files open with the same app.

If need be, you can turn on all file extensions (Finder Preferences -> Advanced) if you are not seeing any extensions, but even without that turned on I see extensions on most documents.
