You're linking to the archives repository, and it should still be
there.  But all those other repositories selected in your second png
will be long gone, because like Ed said, F20 is history.  So, try
without all those extra repositories enabled.  

If you need some specific software for F20 that is no longer available
in order to run the out of date software, you have a couple of options:
1.  It's possible that packages from later, and still current, releases
(F22), will install if the dependencies are met.
2.  Get the src.rpm from a later release, and build it on the new F20
installation.  Use rpmbuild or mock.  You might have to edit the
requirements section of the spec file, or build more recent dependencies
and install them first.  src.rpm packages are available on koji,
