I'm a bit late to the party here, but what worked for me was to sign in again to the "Store" under a new account. This has allowed the download to begin on my computer. Hope this helps someone.
Error code: 0x8020002e unable to update or install windows 8 pro apps.

i've tried all of your methods but still not working. i troubleshoot the apps, create another microsoft account, creat a local account, clean the registry, refreshed, reset and reinstalled windows but the problem is still there. it says, Error code: 0x8020002e. i have a good internet connection.

2013-12-30T01:05:52+00:00 I have a smart bro mobile wifi LTE and I've been encountering this issue and finally able to solve it. I think that win 8 store has issues downloading directly using mobile 3g/4g connection.
I successfully installed and update apps when using the proxy server of smartbro. Apparently, this is a more stable connection since the server caches the data first and doesnt need to do a lot of hops to retrieve the data.
