Does this do what you want? (You may need to experiment with the values).

_textView.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithWhite:0.5 alpha:0.5];

You should use something like this:

_textView.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:1.0 green:1.0 blue:1.0 alpha:0.5];

where alpha - parameter for transparent ( 50% in example).
