I have bought graphics from a graphics designer. He gave me a psd file with buttons and logos all in the same file. In the file there is a specific button I want to use for my project. How would I export only the button portion of the file to a png or jpeg?

using the eyeball toggle buttons on the right-hand panel, hide all elements you don’t want
then go file > save as
give it a name and type of file you want to save as
What you can do in order to get just the single button or logo is something like what Miles said, but that might leave you with some extra blank space that you don’t want.
here a little contribution :
calibrate your screen, check your color profile, turn you image in RGB mode or Grayscale (8 or 16 bit). 😉
Turn off layer you don’t want to save, on windows shortcut “ALT+ left click” on layer eye you want to keep.
trim layer with menu/image/trim… Transparent Pixels
File / Save for Web / Select PNG-8 check transparency, click “Save…” choose a name and save button.
You can use shortcut for do it much more faster.
Of course you can make a Scripts in Scripts panel for repeat this action many times.
You can use free extension like cutandslice.me for export to different device in one shot.
Best wish.
