Can you show us the photo? That would help tremendously.

magic wand tool, select the pictures layer, click on the white, click delete

But when i add it to a dark background there is still a white border outside the picture,

Thats when your gonna probably need the eraser tool.

Use a 1pixel pencil eraser (thats what its called) and zoom in on your pic like 300% while its on the dark bacground. And erase the white pixels.

or even simpler,

After sing the Magic Wand tool got to Select->Modify->Expand and enter 1-2 px. Then fill that selection and the white border should be gone
