I received a .pps presentation (all photos) which has one photo that I would
like to save as a .jpg file. The right click to "save photo as" option does
not work in this .pps file. What can I do to save the picture?

J,
Have you tried this: open your pps, choose file save as, in the save as list
choose as webpage (*.html). PPT will make a new folder, in it you will find
all your photo's. The name may not be straightforward but you will easily
recognize by the extension.

To add to Luc's info, if you try and open the presentation from your e-mail
attachment, it will open in Slide Show Mode since it is a PPS file. Save
the file to your "My Documents" folder (or somewhere). Then open PowerPoint
and open the file. That way it opens in Edit Mode so you can use the
"File", "Save as", "JPG" or webpage options.
