Charlie X - S1-E3

Audio problem: When Uhura apologizes to Spock for interrupting him playing his instrument, her word is cut off mid speak between cuts. She says "I'm sorr-." But it's close enough it easily got past the editor or the editor cut her word off too soon not realizing. (00:09:59)

Miri - S1-E9

Audio problem: After McCoy gives orders for equipment, the Communications officer calls for Kirk. As he goes to answer, Kirk flips open his communicator, but it doesn't make the familiar sound.

The Man Trap - S1-E2

Audio problem: As Kirk low crawls behind some boulder and grass, his communicator flips open and closed. If it was opened, the sound of the channel opening should have been heard, but wasn't. (00:36:35)

Miri - S1-E9

Audio problem: As McCoy scans the body, the scanner portion spins. Suddenly, it stops motion, but McCoy continues passing it over the body, and sounds continue to be heard.

Mistakes

Is There in Truth No Beauty? - S3-E5

Other mistake: In the final scene, Kirk is still in the transporter room, but does not have on a visor when the ambassador transports out. Even if he did, humans can still go mad if wearing one and that's why Spock operates the transporter. Spock has his visor on, but then you see Kirk walk out of the transporter room without a visor and he is not going mad.

Trivia

Trivia: Gene Roddenberry created the transporter as an easier (and cheaper) way of getting Enterprise crew members onto a planet's surface, rather than landing the ship on the planet.

Questions

What Are Little Girls Made Of? - S1-E8

Question: When the Enterprise is in orbit, it uses the Impulse engines to maintain orbit. The Impulse engines are located on the back (aft) of the primary saucer. Why were these not on or lit up? Unless they're using gravity, but there are the familiar engine sounds.

Movie Nut

Chosen answer: If they're in orbit, they're being pulled along by the planet's gravity well, therefore, impulse engines would only be used for minor corrections and would be "on standby" while in orbit, but not active. (Like keeping your car idling without revving the engine and creating plumes of exhaust).
