If you have multiple windows open in the same application, you can also select Zoom All to bring them all to the correct position at once.Īs you can likely guess from its name, this has the exact same effect as the green zoom button, and your partially missing window or windows will now be automatically repositioned and resized to fit your current monitor. Then, also in the Menu Bar, click the word Window and then Zoom. Simply select your desired application to make it active by click on its icon in the Dock (you should see the application’s name in the top-left corner of your OS X Menu Bar, next to the Apple logo). But what if it’s the top of the window that’s off screen, and you can’t see the zoom button at all? In that case, you can achieve the same result via an option in the menu bar.

If you can see the green zoom button, it’s the best way to bring the missing portions of your OS X application window back into view.
