What to do if your puppy stills potties in their crate during crate training?

If you were my client, first question I would ask you is in regards to the size of your crate in proportion to the size of your puppy. Unless a dog is sick or has been left in a crate for an extended period of time (more than 6 hours) most puppies will not potty where they sleep. If your puppy is in a crate that is too large for him, he will have the freedom to use the other side of the crate than he sleeps to relive himself. During puppy crate training, the crate should only be big enough for the puppy to stand up, turn around and lay back down. Some larger crates come with a divider so the crate can grow with your puppy.
Also, the puppy should be in and out of his crate during the day, teaching the puppy that the crate is a safe place. For example, when you can't have your eyes on the puppy 100% of the time (doing chores, taking shower) the puppy should be in his proper size crate and should be rewarded when he enters the crate with either affection, or small treat. This will teach him that the crate is a good place to be.

Crate training is the easiest way to housetrain dogs, and it also teaches them how to settle down and entertain themselves when you're gone. However, crates won't work if they're used to punish a dog or keep him "out of sight, out of mind." Use the crate only when necessary, give your dog plenty of breaks to stretch his legs and to play and bond with you, and make crate time more pleasant by stocking it with toys.more information:http://dogtime.com/housetraining-crate-training.html
What breeds do well with crate training?
All breeds have the potential to do well with crate training. They will howl and bark ad whine for the first few days or about a week, but after that they should come to think of the crate as their bedroom. It will make it easier for the dog if you give then a treat when you put them in the crate so they know they are not being punished.

What is the best way to house train a puppy in an apartment?
If your puppy (or dog) is in need of potty training, the best method would be to paper train him. Crate training can be used at the same time you're paper training him. While you're away, putting your puppy in the crate is a good way to keep him from wetting (or "going #2") on himself. Puppies don't like to wet themselves, and will try very hard not too. So it is important to get a crate small enough so that they don't have room to go in one corner of the crate and then be clean in another corner. You can find out more about paper and crate training in a google search. You'll get tons of helpful websites. The website in related has information of both paper and crate training in it.

Your puppy is not doing well in potty training what should you do you are crate traing her now and all she does is pee and poop in her crate?
Either invest in a smaller crate, or block off a part of a larger crate to make the dogs space smaller. The dog will start the think of the crate as is bedroom, and it won't want to go to the bathroom in its bedroom. If there is room for the dog to go to the bathroom and then lay in another area where it can stay away from the feces, the crate is too big. Dogs do not want to lay in their own feces, so a small crate would help to curb this habit.
