Answer 3

In iOS 6 seems this is not enough. I have to set both,

menuTable.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
if ([menuTable respondsToSelector:@selector(setBackgroundView:)]) { // only after 3.2
    [menuTable setBackgroundView:nil];
}

Answer 4

self.view.layer.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor].CGColor;

Works on iOS 9.

Answer 5

cell.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
cell.backgroundView = nil;
table.backgroundView = nil;

This works for me.

Answer 6

UITableView inherits a 'alpha' property from UIView so try changing that :)
