I just purchased the Maya plugin and tried to install it for Maya 2013.5 but don't think it installed. Is Maya 2013 Extension supported?

Yes.
Can you describe in detail what is the problem?

The install seemed to go very fast and said it had finished. I loaded up Maya to look under the plug-in manager but Octane doesn't seem to show up.

Do you not see the "OctanePlugin.mll" there?
Have you checked the checkbox in the installer next to your Maya version?

-No OctanePlugin.mll shows up.
-I checked the Maya version for Maya 2013 x86
I did install the 64 bit version of the standalone version of Octane. Do these need to match?
I checked the paths C:\Users\paul\Documents\maya\2013.5 and C:\Program Files (x86)\Autodesk and didn't see anything related to Octane. However, I did see and uninstaller file.

Do you see the the file "c:\Program Files (x86)\Autodesk\Maya2013\bin\plug-ins\OctanePlugin.mll"?

No....
However my path would be C:\Program Files (x86)\Autodesk\Maya2013.5\bin\plug-ins
I'm wondering if the install is getting confused because of the .5 on the end of the Maya2013 folder name.

Installer gets the path from the registry.
Can you check the
MAYA_INSTALL_LOCATION key in the registry at path
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Autodesk\Maya\2013\Setup\InstallPath, what value it has? Or perhaps you do not have this path and have the
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Autodesk\Maya\2013.5\Setup\InstallPath instead?..

Sorry, in you case this path should be like HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Autodesk\Maya\2013\Setup\InstallPath for x86 Maya installations...
