Tested on: WordPress 3.4.1

By default, WordPress allows Authors to see the titles of other users posts, unpublished drafts, and all media, even though they cannot be edited.

Use this code to only allow posts and media of the currently logged in Author to be displayed.

Unlike other solutions, this also fixes the post/media count on the filter bars (All|Published|Draft|Pending|Trash; All|Images|Videos|Unattached).

// Show only posts and media related to logged in author
add_action('pre_get_posts', 'query_set_only_author' );
function query_set_only_author( $wp_query ) {
    global $current_user;
    if( is_admin() && !current_user_can('edit_others_posts') ) {
        $wp_query->set( 'author', $current_user->ID );
        add_filter('views_edit-post', 'fix_post_counts');
        add_filter('views_upload', 'fix_media_counts');
    }
}
