I want to have clear background for this image, have the letters PAUSE on a while background, and remove the oval dots just inside the oval boarder.

What steps should I use

I'm also with Trevor.Dennis idea. This is not a big deal to make another one like that. Even here is my thought

You just need to apply 2 tools there to achieve it. 1. Lasso Tool to select dots area and apply same color on there.

2. Now choose Magic Wand Tool to select around the object.

Finally delete it or apply any colors what you need.

I can not get the Lasso tool to just select the dots. After I drag the Lasso around the dots, then use the Magic Wand, the outline of Pause is also selected. I will try and find a video on how to use the lasso and magic wand.

Photoshop is not very intuitive on how to do simple tasks like this.

Many thing done in digital image processing is not intuitive. For example it surprised me to learn that sharpening an image was accomplished by blurring.

Photoshop has many feature to help you to select things the magic wand and lasso tools are not a good tool choices for selecting those dots. Photoshop has a huge learning curve many thing need to be learned and much is not intuitive.

You also could color rage select black. Expand the selection by 1 px. use the eyedropper to sample the red color and fill the selector with the foreground color. you cam also fill the gray area will a white paint bucket.
