Can't resize iTunes window

The resize box for iTunes is below the bottom of the screen so the resize box is not accessible. How can I resize the window so I can use the buttons at the bottom of the window again?

Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.5.6)

Whoa. I just had the same problem. I went from a large monitor to my laptop, and iTunes' resize handle is too far down. Normally, I can zoom (i.e. maximize) the window via the green plus in the top left of the app, but that only switches to the small iTunes player. NOT helpful.

Here's a free/donationware tool that'll help:

Apple should be embarrassed that we have to install a 3rd party tool for this! This is GUI 101, here. At least Windows lets you resize from various corners, or use the Alt-F4 option and then use cursor keys. If my PC friends new about this, they'd never let me live it down. I'm a little ashamed right now...

I found another way. I just went to the monitors control panel and changed the monitor resolution. That popped it back into place so I could adjust it again and then reset the monitor back to where it should be. At least I did not need a third party tool, but I agree, this is a glaring oversight.
