I have a presentation that contains 5 images. I want the presentation to start at image one and run to image five. I then want it to loop back to image TWO and then run to image five and then loop forever. So basically, image one only appears once, at the start. How do I do that? Thanks.

You simply have to go to the last frame, open Actions panel (Windows menu > Actions) and write a line of code over there.

this.gotoAndPlay(2);          (for Actionscript 3.0 files), or

this.gotoAndPlay(1);          (for HTML5 Canvas files)

Sorry - being thick; how do I set it up to return the playhead to the specific frame? Say I want it to go back to frame 25 and then loop continuously from there? Thank you for your answer.

this.gotoAndPlay(FrameNumber);

  or

this.gotoAndPlay('Label');
