Depends on what kind of layers.
If the layer is not selected, select the layer you want to draw on.
If that's the case it should work. If not...
Try merging them, or rasterize them if they aren't already.
When you choose some of drawing tools like Pen Tool, Shape tool, take a look at Options Bar below menu. At Options Bar you can choose to draw on new layer (blank except what you will draw) and this is recommended because content can be changed at any time, to draw only path or to draw pixels on existing layer. Those options are on the very beginning of Options Bar, navigate mouse and hold under options to show you pop-up tooltip.
When working with Brush Tool, Pencil Tool or Mixer Brush Tool you dont have this options because Brushes can paint only pixels but you have option to make new layer and paint on it so if you want to change some quality of painting or delete that layer you can do that at any time even after saving image (save in psd).

How do you return the layer box on Photoshop?
If the Layers palette is missing, you can return it by clicking on the "Window" menu near the top of Photoshop, then selecting "Layers" to ad a checkmark next to it, indicating that it is now visible. Photoshop also allows palettes to be un-docked from the program and dragged around anywhere on your screen, not just in the Photoshop window, so if you have a dual-monitor setup, make sure that you didn't somehow hide the palette on your second monitor.

What are layers on Photoshop?
The first layer is your background. When you add a new layer, it's like a clear sheet of plastic. You can draw on this plastic and not edit the layer below it. If you add a third, it doesn't change the two below it. So you can tweak each layer, and if you mess up, you haven't destroyed your entire project.
