Default Winterizing - Dumb Question

Well, I decided to throw in the towel on the weekend and put my car to bed for the winter. I did the usual stuff; change oil, fuel stabilizer, wash, pull battery etc etc. I then wanted to add a little air to my tires and ran in to trouble. For some reason I couldn't get them to take any air. Of course I checked the obvious - my compressor was on. I then tried 3 different nozzles and none worked. I tried 3 of the 4 tires and nothing.

I recently replaced my tires and have not had to adjust the pressure til now. Since I removed the battery before adjusting the air pressure, is it possible that the sensors are preventing air from being added? If thats not it, is there anything else that it could be?
