Since you didn't provide brand and model info - only generic help can be given.

Most cameras will automatically turn the flash on when conditions are too dark for a successful exposure. Many times, the camera will not allow you to take the picture if the flash can't be turned on. You'll have to go through the menu settings of the camera to find a Flash Setting. Popular choices are often Always Flash, Never Flash, Red Eye Reduction and Automatic Flash. It sounds as if the setting was changed to Never Flash - or the flash bulb itself has failed.

If you have problems still - provide the manufacturer and model camera you're using and I'll see if I can find out how to do it for you. Good luck!

How do you turn the flash off?

Press the flash button (right on the multiselector, marked with a lightning bolt) repeatedly to cycle through the various flash modes. To turn off the flash, select the lightning bolt in a circle with a slash through it. Don't forget to turn it back on later if you want it to flash.

How can I turn the flash off on a cannon power shot a400 camera

Your menus will have options to be able to turn off the flash in certain modes.
The camera also has external buttons which will turn the flash on or off. Read your user manual.
The button which has the SET inside has four selectors. The right selector has a flash on/off button to turn the flash on or off. The flash usually will flash when set to flash all the time and not in AUTO mode. The AUTO mode may not allow you to turn off the flash. You probably have to choose another mode to allow the flash to be turned off.

Flash

Where the OK button is there is a circle around it. On the left side there is a pic of a flash. You have to turn on camera then turn off flash by pressing the button on the left (flash) til your display shows a flash with a circle around it in the top left corner. Now the flash will not come on.
