We construct various examples of non-trivial closed ideals the compact-by-approximable algebra AX:=K(X)/A(X) on Banach spaces X failing approximation property. The include following: (i) if has cotype 2, Y type AX≠{0} and AY≠{0}, then AX⊕Y at least 2 ideals, (ii) there are subspaces X⊂ℓp for 4<p<∞ X⊂c0 such that AX contains a ideal, (iii) is space Z AZ an uncountable lattice having reverse orde...
