Wait 59 minutes and try again, or do as instructed below. Unfortunately if you have a forgotten/unknown device passcode, or have a disabled device, you have no option but to erase the device. However, you can eventually restore the data and settings from a backup you made before the device was disabled. You must have a computer to use the method below. If you don't have a computer, borrow one from a friend, or go to an Apple Retail Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider. You can also use a PC with iTunes. You will likely also need your Apple ID and password. All Apple mobile devices follow the same general procedure but the link below and other links off it provide model-specific instructions:

Here is a related video which to me has more complete and clearer instructions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7s8-zLG9ySQ
Steps:
1. With the device disconnected from a computer use the model-specific instructions in the links above to shut down the device.
2. Connect it to a computer with Finder or iTunes (Mojave or earlier, or PC).
3. Restart into recovery mode (black screen with a cable indicating attach to computer).
4. When prompted, click "Restore" to erase data & settings, and update system software. May take some time.
5. Set up your device ( https://support.apple.com/kb/HT202033 ). Partway through you are offered the opportunity to restore your data and settings from a backup, or you can do this at a later stage ( https://support.apple.com/HT204184 ). Even if you have no backup, if you were using some iCloud services to sync items such as Contacts or Photos those may reappear once you sign back into your iCloud account --> Set up iCloud on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - https://support.apple.com/HT208681

The iPhone screens says iPhone is disabled connect to iTunes. I try to shut it down using the instructions in the video, (press and hold the side button and one of the volume buttons until the power off slider appears) but no matter how long I hold the two buttons on the phone THE POWER SLIDER APPEAR, however the little circle thingy in the middle of the screen appears indicating power down. Initially I tried the UPDATE mode, which didn't work. I tried several times and finally was able to get to the restore screen on the phone. This time I am doing a RESTORE. Hopefully that works
Thanks for the help
Wait until then. If you're not given the option to enter it, click here and follow the instructions.
