Answer 1

For TableView

[self.yourtableView setBackgroundView:nil];
[self.yourtableView setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];

And asign clear color to cell

cell.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];

And for UISearchBar

[self.yourSearchBar setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];
[self.yourSearchBarsetBackgroundImage:[UIImage new]];
[self.yourSearchBar setTranslucent:YES];

Answer 2

For iOS7+, all you need to do is:

[self.searchBarHome setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];
[self.searchBarHome setBarTintColor:[UIColor clearColor]]; //this is what you want

as written in Make UISearchBar background clear
