Shields. That's also why when Kirk is on the planet and the Enterprise comes under attack in orbit, they can't simply beam Kirk aboard before taking evasive action, the Enterprise has to leave Kirk to be ravished by the lady aliens.

Although, since they had forward and side and rear shields, you'd think they could open a little hole in the shields to use the transporter.
