Aperture 3.4 crashes on startup how do I downgrade?

after upgrading to 3.4 (from 3.3.x) Aperture crashes on startup. the install was done from the manual download from the apple site, since the app store does not recognize my pre appstore install.

Before bothering to try and downgrade, you should try and reisntall from your DVD and update directly to this latest version. Do you still see the crash?

..for some reason, when I assigned them to Places using the drop pin, Aperture created a filter by Area that caused no photos to be selected.

That is a feature, not a bug. Aperture will create this filter, when you select a "Places" pin on the map and click the little blue arrow to the right side of the places label. This sets an area filter and limits the selection to the images that are assigned to this place.
