Why can't I insert key into ignition on 2005 Honda Civic?

Added (1). Battery died, had it jumped. Couldn't insert key into ignition. After some time was able to, started car ok, removed key, locked out of ignition again. I know sometimes disconnecting battery will mess up a Honda computers things/radios. Trying to solve before a tow to the dealer. This car also has an AM security. Just owned a week. Left the AM security FOB in the house so no conflict but it may be too late. Can't recall steps taken to get it started yesterday at least once.

Wrong key or ignition lock faulty

Make sure there's no tension from the wheels being turned, that can make it hard to insert the key if the wheels are putting pressure on the steering column lock mechanism.
