Sometime ago a friend told me, that on his Mac Notebook, he extracted an Addon to Interface\Addons ... he got asked if he wants to overwrite the existing data, and like used to from Windows he just said "yes". But, his Mac OS not only replaced the last "Interface\Addons\Addonname"-folder... instead it replaced the full "Interface\Addons"-path leaving only the just extracted addon in there, all that was not in the just extracted zip got deleted from his "Interface\Addons"-path.

Not sure if it's allways that way on a Mac, I have no experience with Mac ... but if you happen to have a Mac, I guess the same happened to your Data folder -- and the only chance is a reinstall of WoW in this case.
