The Replace Color command can’t turn colors into transparent because transparent isn’t a color. What you need is a selection of the white pixels and the Replace Color command doesn’t give you a selection.
You can use Select > Color Range instead. Select all the white pixels and when they’re selected, delete them with the delete key. In order to turn pixels transparent you need a "real" layer and not a background layer, so if the image only have a background layer, double click on it in the layer palette and give it a name. Then you can delete to transparent.

Basically I want to turn all white areas to transparent (and magic eraser doesn’t seem to do the job) so I assume this is what I do:
Image=>Adjustments=>Replace Color
