Restart your device if you haven't already done so. A simple restart can solve a lot of problems.

1. Turn off the device completely by pressing and holding the power button.
2. If your device is connected with a power cable, unplug the power cable from the device for at least 1 minute once you've turned off the device.
3. Plug the power cable back in and turn the device back on.
