sorry, explain please how this happens? I do keep the Calibre database on a Dropbox folder, but I do NOT access it simultaneously from more than one location.

nope, no one is messing with the folder other than through the Calibre interface.
> 3) You dual boot accessed the library (Win/Linux)
nope, only Apple OS (desktop or laptop).
4) You ran Calibre with a Cloud sync active
what is that? I searched, and only found mention of something called Calibre Cloud Pro which is supposed to make Calibre work with Dropbox, but how's this different than just keeping the database on a Dropbox folder? Does it maybe allow simultaneous access from multiple locations (which I don't need)?
