Moving groups
Also, now that the lamp is where I want it, I cant get the spotlight inside of it to move with the IKhandle that actuates the lamp itself. the spot stays fixed while the lampshade moves around.<Thanks for the help;

Are the objects grouped or parented together? What you may want to do is unparent everything, move it into position and then free transforms and if you can delete the history. Then parent the objects again. Sometimes it is to do with now you parent the objects together. I've had it before but what I do is test each parenting as I do it and check that it works ok before carrying on.
It's a pain but it works.
Parent the spotlight to the lampshade geometry rather than the IK handle. That should do it
