We're talking about two different qualitative things here. It's not a transitive/intransitive thing, it's whether you're talking about shining as in "polishing things" (i.e. shoes or silver), or shining as in giving off or reflecting light (i.e. the sun or a mirror). Thus:
The past tense of polishing-shining is "shined". The past tense of glowing-shining is "shone".
I hate having to jump into a dictionary to check my answer, but MW.com lists the distinction as transitive/intransitive, so both the third and forth choices point to the same thing, don't they?
