Abstract
An example computer implemented method for updating a first version of a content item on a client device. The example method includes recording an indicator that the first version is going to be updated to a second version of the content item. The computer can then begin updating the first version of the content item to the second version of the content item. Next, the computer can determine that the updating of the content item was interrupted. The computer can then determine if the second version of the content item is the same version as a current version of the content item. The computer can then change a description in a cache and the indicator accordingly.
