I have been trying to download audiobook files to OverDrive Media Console from various elibraries. Initially I gave erroneous instructions that to download to iTunes. Now, I am not asked where to download files - they just appear in download window and disappear.

Go to Tools -> Options -> Applications tab and change the action for the file type.

You should also check the overall option under the General -> Downloads section

If I go to TOOLS, there is no "Options -> Applications tab and change the action for the file type. Tools in Firefox has the following items on its menu: Web search, Downloads, Add-ons, Sync Now, Web developer, Page info, Clear recent history.

Again, NO Options > Applications tab. I'm using a Mac OS 10.5.8.
