That's fairly common. All I've ever done to fix it is to have the starter rebuilt. If the flywheel and gear were not covered you could lift it up with a screw driver to get it to engage.
Also, make sure your batteries are charged. Weak batteries may not spin the starter fast enough to force the gear up.
