A background on what? If your talking about scene mode, goto... Settings => Environment... Then you have the options or solid, image, panarama, or environment map. Select the one you want, then change the settings to the corresponding picture(s). It is also noteworthy to mention that to see the effect of the background, you need be in camera view (view => camera). Hope this helps, if not you need to tell us what you want the background on. It could be multiple things, like an object that you use as a background or the background of the scene.

You can change the background (panorama) settings in Settings>Environment.  The Panorama Angles settings defines the angles of the top, bottom, left and right of the panorama image.  Left and right settings of 180 degrees wraps the image all the way around.

Is the ground grid on? The only thing that I can think of that may do that is the two-toned, gray, ground grid. Go to the same place as before (Settings=>Environment...) and a little more than halveway down is a checkbox entitiled "Ground Grid". Uncheck that and the grid will disappear. If you were using a solid background, this is the only thing that should effect what you're seeing. Again, I hope this helps.
