How change background in illustrator

[elindo586]

For some reason my new documents are coming looking transparent and with a green color ruler, but I want to work on a white canvas without any rulers.

See pictures below.

It is coming looking this way, and I DO NOT want it this way.

I DO WANT it this way.
