Hi, few minutes ago I've downloaded new SP1 for Maya (1.5GB) but after installation it's still an old Maya; not SP1. Any suggestions how to update it to SP1? Thanks

If you mean the subscription advantage pack then I am affraid it is only for subscription customers, if you only need a hotfix you can download it here:

The scary thing is the release notes say to uninstall the original maya before installing the service pack 1. Does this mean I have to reinstall all my plugins like bonus tools and such?

I answered my own question...I uninstalled maya 2012 hf4 and then reinstalled maya 2012 sp1 and it appears all the addons are there and working fine so I did not have to reinstall them. Thank goodness.
