Help with pausing the playhead

I haven't used flash in many years and am trying to pick it back up. I'm working on an ad that I want to pause on a frame for a few seconds, fade to the next, then pause on that frame for a few seconds then go back to the start. I've got all my tweens set up (i'm sure there are ways to do this with action script but i have no idea how) but just cant figure out how to make it pause, then proceed. Any help would be great! Thanks!

The easiest way to accomplish your desired effect is by adding keyframes F5. Let your animation happen, then add frames for when nothing happens, then it will automatically loop back to the beginning.
