Nothing is turning inside the trans when the car is off. When it's running, if something is off..i.e. a damaged synchro...it will be more difficult to get into gear as it's rotating and has to mesh properly.

That's not what I said, can't diagnose a problem without seeing it, just trying to point you in the right direction....you need to have it looked at, could be a problem with the clutch, TO brng, synchros, sliders, shift fork, etc, etc.
