Are you using OmniGraffle 5 Professional or Standard? Shared layers are a Pro-only feature.
It turns out there's a bug in OmniGraffle 5 Standard that allows the very determined to create a shared layer, but it'll be locked, so you can't do anything with it.
(If you're using OmniGraffle 5 Standard and someone sends you a Graffle file with shared layers, you can view them, but they're locked, so you can't edit them.)
