IN the transmission.
Check that the TV rod is adjusted properly or is still attached. it is an adjustable rod that connects from the transmission to the throttle linkage and the adjustment controls the shift points and kick down function of the transmission.

Between the engine and the transmission.
If you're asking why the gearshift won't release once you start the engine, it's probably a problem in the keyswitch mechanism that releases the gearshift. If you're asking why the transmission won't shift into gear after you start the engine and put it in gear, it could just be low on transmission fluid or have a blocked filter, but most likely the transmission has failed and you'll need to take it to a shop. Check the transmission fluid, if the level is up, smell the fluid, if it smells burnt you have overheated a clutch. Sometimes that just happens when a transmission gets worn out.
most cars you have to add the transmission fluid through the dipstick hole leading into the transmission its self
Same place you check it.
