Does only one of them work, or do both work?
Anyone know?

Shadows don't do hit point damage, so the spell has no effect.
I think he is asking if he casts shield other on the shadow, does he take half and the shadow take one quarter or does he and the shadow both take one quarter.
There isn't a rule that directly hints at this, but my guess is the OP would take half of the original damage and the shadow would take the other half which would be reduced to one quarter.
The alternate interpretation is to apply the half from incorporeal first and then apply shield other. The OP should ask his DM.
I had a player that used the same kind of combo. What would happen is that I applied half the damage do to shield other and halved it again thanks to incorporeal. That's how it works I believe.

That is how I thought it would work. Any reason as to why it would not work that way?
My DM thinks that it would take either half damage from being incorporeal or half damage from shield other; not from both.
