This is extremely rare (if ever) and most likely unique to your situation. Upgrading calibre never causes data loss. On occasion a setting may switch state, but other than that actual data is just not touched during upgrades.

So no correlation to any upgrade. I'm not an OS X user but we need more info to try and help you.
Do you use Dropbox or other cloud sync software?
Is your library run via a network server?
Do you ever have two computers connected to the same library at the same time?

Did you read this on your computer or on your Kindle?

How do you open calibre? When you say "home page" what exactly are you referring to? What does "wiped clean with -zeros- galore" mean? Exactly what do you see?
