Hi dizzy,
I'm not too sure that I understand your problem & so hopefully I won't confuse you here
If you were able to drag the saved folder into Shared & the songs showed up, I don't know why they weren't showing in LW's library when you clicked on Saved to start with.
Do you want to have all of your shared files in your saved folder?
If you want to share everything in your saved folder then the easy way is just to make LW's saved folder the same location as your shared folder. That's the way I have it. If you want to have the same folder for both saving & sharing - in LW go tools > options > sharing. Note the path of your shared folder. Now go tools > options > saving. Change the saved folder location & make it the same as your shared folder location > apply > ok.
Restart LW & you should have the same things showing in your library when you click on saved or shared files.
