I guess masking is needed for this task. You just need to select the image well and then need to change the background.

    You have not shown your layers panel but it looks as if you already have the layer with transparency (or with a mask) so we can see the transparency chequered grid.

    That being the case, all you need to is go to Layer - New Fill Layer - Solid Colour - then choose black.

    If you drag it in the layers panel so that it is underneath your image with transparency - you will get what you want.

    Note if the layer with transparency has a lock symbol on it, you will not be able to change its position in the panel. Just click on the lock to remove it.

      I am able to set the background from blue sky to white, but when I play the action back I get the error message above. I tried opening different Layers, moving (then I get unable to Move) or (current Layer not Available).
