I have created a matlab gui and I want to use the variable magE from the function (pushbutton1) in the function (pushbutton2).
How can I call it?
magE = matrix of 244 rows and 2000 Columns
I would be grateful for any help. Thank you!

You should be using the hObject handle to pass data between GUI functions and callbacks, it's all quite well explained in the auto-generated comments. Example taken from MATLAB documentation:
% --- Executes just before simple_gui_tab is made visible.
function my_GUIDE_GUI_OpeningFcn(hObject, eventdata, handles, varargin)
% This function has no output args, see OutputFcn.
% hObject handle to figure
% eventdata reserved - to be defined in a future version of MATLAB
% handles structure with handles and user data (see GUIDATA)
% varargin command line arguments to simple_gui_tab (see VARARGIN)
% ...
% add some additional data as a new field called numberOfErrors
handles.numberOfErrors = 0;
% Save the change you made to the structure guidata(hObject,handles)
Suppose you needed to access the numberOfErrors field in a push button callback. Your callback code now looks something like this:
% --- Executes on button press in pushbutton1.
function my_GUIDE_GUI_pushbutton1_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
% hObject handle to pushbutton1 (see GCBO)
% eventdata reserved - to be defined in a future version of MATLAB
% handles structure with handles and user data (see GUIDATA)
% ...
% No need to call guidata to obtain a structure;
% it is provided by GUIDE via the handles argument
handles.numberOfErrors = handles.numberOfErrors + 1;
% save the changes to the structure
guidata(hObject,handles)

One way would be to declare magE as a global variable in the main script. Then, inside each function you should also declare it as global so that it would refer to the same global variable.
e.g.
global magE
<your_code_here>
function [] = pushbutton1()
global magE
%%<your_code_here>
end
function [] = pushbutton2()
global magE
%%<your_code_here>
end
