The next thing to try is save your scene, close and reopen maya and see if it works properly. I have had to start doing this recently as maya will stop refreshing my screen, or redrawing the channel box or outliner window.
You can also get a bug where you insert a loop abd forget to reset the tool settings and then undo the last insert and on the subsequent attempt to insert a loop it just drops a vert but does not draw the loop. For this you have to completely drop the tool, then reselect the object, reopen the tool and it will then insert a loop (providing you did not create a floating vert).
