1980 cb750 tranny

hmm can anyone tell whats wrong with my transmission?
i just recently got a bike that has not been run in a long time. to see if the engine turned over i put the bike into gear and tried to push it, it would not budge.  i thought that the engine was stuck, but before pouring some atf into the cylinders i took off the crank case off and successfully cranked the engine. so i know the engine is not seized but why will the bike not move when put in a gear? the bike moves fine in neutral and will also move when i pull the clutch when in gear, so i think the clutch is fine.  to be honest this is my first motorcycle, and i dont know how to properly ride one yet so it maybe just be my ignorance. but could the transmission be stuck?

Hi if the bike moves when in gear and the clutch is in then the transmission is OK,
